A traffic collision involving two pickup trucks occurred today on Interstate 15 South near Rancho Bernardo in San Diego, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 6:49 AM and involved a brown Chevrolet pickup and a black Toyota pickup. Both vehicles sustained damage and required towing from the scene.
The collision caused significant lane blockage in the merge area for the main lanes and the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane, resulting in potential traffic delays for morning commuters. Emergency traffic management units were dispatched to the scene to assist with traffic flow and minimize disruptions.
By 7:03 AM, it was confirmed that the Chevrolet pickup was blocking the first lane, prompting the need for a tow truck, which was called shortly thereafter. By 7:15 AM, all emergency units had moved to the right-hand side of the roadway to facilitate the towing process.
Traffic management personnel worked diligently to redirect vehicles and maintain safety on the highway. The tow truck arrived, and efforts to clear the roadway were underway by 7:22 AM.
Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect delays in the area as cleanup operations continue. The California Highway Patrol is actively managing the situation to restore normal traffic conditions as quickly as possible.
