A traffic incident involving a dark-colored sedan occurred today on the westbound 105 Freeway near Wilmington Avenue in Willowbrook, CA, resulting in significant traffic delays. The incident was first reported at approximately 12:07 AM when a male individual was seen trying to flag down vehicles from the high-occupancy vehicle lane.
By 12:10 AM, the sedan was reported to be facing sideways in the carpool lane, with the driver waving for assistance. Emergency services responded promptly, and by 12:18 AM, a tow truck was requested due to the vehicle being unmovable and obstructing both the carpool and adjacent lanes.
Traffic was heavily impacted, with all lanes reportedly stopped as responders worked to manage the situation. At 12:39 AM, it was confirmed that one and a half lanes were still open, allowing some traffic to flow while the incident was being addressed.
By 12:52 AM, the roadway was cleared as the vehicle was successfully removed from the scene. Fortunately, there were no confirmed injuries reported, although the status of any potential injuries remains unknown.
Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect possible residual delays in the area as traffic resumes normal flow.
