A traffic collision occurred on Interstate 5 North near Beach Boulevard in Buena Park, CA, today at approximately 11:45 PM. The incident involved one vehicle, which was found facing the wrong direction in the slow lane. This positioning caused significant traffic disruptions, as the vehicle partially blocked the lane, leading to slow-moving traffic in the area.
Emergency response teams quickly arrived to manage the situation and direct traffic. Multiple units were deployed to ensure safety and facilitate the flow of vehicles around the obstruction. A tow truck was called to assist in removing the vehicle from the roadway, with the towing process starting shortly after the incident was reported.
As the situation developed, the slow lane remained blocked, resulting in delays for motorists traveling through the area. By 12:02 AM, the roadway was reported to be cleared, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. However, the initial blockage had already created a backlog of vehicles, prompting drivers to exercise caution as they navigated the area.
Authorities continued to monitor the situation to ensure that traffic flowed smoothly following the incident. Motorists were advised to stay alert and follow any posted detours or instructions from emergency personnel.
