A traffic collision involving two vehicles, a white semi-truck and a Subaru Crosstrek, occurred today on the southbound lanes of State Route 51 near the Arden Way off-ramp in Sacramento, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 5:29 PM and resulted in both vehicles being unable to move from the scene.

Emergency services responded quickly, and fortunately, there were no reported injuries. The semi-truck was able to maneuver to the right side of the roadway, while the Subaru Crosstrek remained immobilized in the traffic lanes. This blockage necessitated the arrival of a tow service to clear the area and restore normal traffic flow.

As emergency personnel worked at the scene, the third lane was blocked, which could have caused delays for drivers in the area. By 5:52 PM, the semi-truck had successfully moved to the right side, allowing some traffic to resume, but the Subaru remained in place until the tow truck arrived.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through this area as cleanup efforts continue. The California Highway Patrol encourages drivers to stay alert and follow any detours or instructions provided by emergency responders.
