A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on the southbound lanes of Interstate 405 at the Wilshire Boulevard off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident took place around 5:55 PM when a black Mazda CX5, which was stationary and waiting for assistance, was struck by a gray Toyota Prius. The collision also involved a blue BMW sedan, resulting in all three vehicles blocking the roadway.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, as the black Mazda was obstructing the off-ramp and the gray Toyota Prius was partially blocking the slow lane. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries from the incident.
Traffic in the area was impacted due to the blockage, prompting drivers to seek alternate routes while emergency responders worked to clear the scene. By 6:23 PM, emergency personnel were actively assisting with the situation, focusing on removing the vehicles and restoring normal traffic flow.
Motorists are reminded to remain vigilant and cautious, especially in areas where accidents may occur. The California Highway Patrol encourages drivers to stay informed about traffic conditions and to drive safely.
