A traffic incident occurred today on Interstate 15 South near Glen Helen Parkway in San Bernardino, CA, involving a single vehicle. At approximately 7:21 AM, a black Honda Civic spun out and collided with construction equipment in the area. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
Emergency services quickly responded to manage the situation. The vehicle was rendered undriveable and remained in the construction zone, causing some traffic disruption. Construction crews were on-site to address safety concerns for passing motorists.
By 8:45 AM, it was reported that construction gear had rolled into the third lane, leading to additional traffic challenges as vehicles swerved to avoid the obstruction. Authorities temporarily closed the southbound lanes of Interstate 15 to facilitate the removal of the construction equipment.
Traffic control measures were implemented to manage the flow of vehicles, and a tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the black Honda Civic from the construction area. This incident underscores the importance of exercising caution in construction zones, particularly during adverse weather conditions that can lead to vehicle loss of control.
Motorists are advised to remain vigilant and adhere to posted signs and instructions in construction areas to ensure their safety and the safety of others on the road.
