A multi-vehicle traffic collision occurred today on the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 at Van Nuys Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA. The incident involved five vehicles: a black BMW X1, a gray Lexus, a white Mercedes, a blue Ram pickup, and a white Ford F150 pickup. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
Emergency services responded to the scene shortly after the incident was reported at approximately 6:03 AM. The black BMW X1 was initially blocking the off-ramp, and as the situation unfolded, it was determined that all five vehicles were obstructing the roadway, particularly in the fast lane.

Motorists in the vicinity are advised to remain cautious and expect potential delays as the situation is resolved.
