A traffic collision involving a red Chevrolet Camaro and another unidentified vehicle occurred today on the southbound Interstate 5 near Main Street in Santa Ana, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 5:46 AM, resulting in the blockage of two lanes, which caused significant traffic delays.

Emergency services arrived promptly at the scene, but the situation was complicated by the uncooperative behavior of one driver, who ignored commands to move their vehicle to the shoulder. This delay hindered the clearing process, as the vehicle continued to obstruct traffic.

By around 6:00 AM, the vehicle was finally moved to the right-hand side of the highway, allowing for the gradual reopening of the lanes. A tow truck was requested to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the collision. The status of any injuries remains unknown at this time.

Motorists traveling on the southbound Interstate 5 near Main Street should exercise caution and expect potential delays as the aftermath of the incident is resolved. It is advisable to seek alternate routes if possible until normal traffic flow is restored.
