A significant traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today at the intersection of State Route 92 and State Route 35 North in San Mateo, CA. The incident took place around 11:49 AM and involved a gray Toyota RAV4 and a blue Toyota Prius, both of which were severely damaged and required towing.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, and a traffic alert was issued due to the blockage of all lanes. The California Highway Patrol reported that both directions were obstructed, leading to traffic being diverted at Lower Lake traffic light and Canada Road.
Multiple tow trucks were dispatched to remove the damaged vehicles from the roadway. After a prolonged period of lane closures and traffic delays, all lanes were reopened by 2:49 PM, allowing traffic to resume normal flow.
While the status of any injuries remains unknown, the swift response from emergency services helped manage the situation effectively. Motorists in the area were advised to expect delays during the incident, but the reopening of the lanes has alleviated congestion caused by the crash.
Drivers are reminded to exercise caution and stay alert while traveling through busy intersections, especially during peak hours. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor traffic conditions to ensure safety on the roads.
