A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today at the Alton Parkway on-ramp in Irvine, CA, leading to significant roadway obstruction. The incident involved a gray Toyota RAV4 and a white Mercedes SUV, both of which became immovable and blocked traffic. Emergency services responded to the scene shortly after the collision was reported at approximately 5:35 PM.
Upon arrival, responders found both vehicles unable to move due to major damage. Efforts were made to push the vehicles to the side of the on-ramp, but they remained inoperable. Tow trucks were requested to remove both vehicles, with the first tow truck called for the white Mercedes, identified as an electric vehicle. A second tow truck was later requested for the gray Toyota RAV4.
As of 6:19 PM, the estimated time of arrival for the tow trucks was still pending, causing ongoing traffic delays in the area. While the report does not confirm any injuries, the status remains unknown. Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes until the vehicles are cleared and normal traffic flow resumes.
