A serious traffic collision occurred early this morning on State Route 99 North near the Stockton Boulevard off-ramp in Sacramento, CA. A black Ford Mustang collided with a cement barrier, resulting in unknown injuries to the driver, who was transported to the hospital for medical care.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene at approximately 3:48 AM. The Mustang sustained significant damage and was deemed undriveable, necessitating the arrival of a tow truck. Additionally, an Econoline van was observed near the scene, but it is unclear if it was involved in the incident.
The collision caused several lanes to be closed temporarily as emergency responders worked to manage the situation. Initially, one to two lanes were blocked, leading to traffic delays. However, by around 4:38 AM, all lanes were reopened, although some debris remained on the roadway, requiring further attention from the Department of Transportation.
Authorities canceled the traffic alert shortly after, allowing normal traffic flow to resume. Motorists in the area were advised to remain cautious as cleanup efforts continued. This incident highlights the importance of safe driving and awareness on the road.
