A significant traffic collision occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 405 (I-405) at Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA. The incident, involving two vehicles—a white SUV and a grey Nissan SUV—was reported at approximately 12:12 AM. The grey Nissan SUV is currently not drivable, resulting in lane blockages affecting lanes two, three, and the middle lanes, which led to temporary closures.

Emergency services quickly responded to the scene, deploying units to manage traffic flow and ensure safety. As a result of the collision, motorists experienced delays and congestion in the area, particularly during the early morning hours when many commuters were on the road. The presence of emergency responders and the need for a tow truck for the grey Nissan SUV contributed to the traffic backup.

Drivers are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid the affected area and minimize travel delays. The situation is still developing, and further updates will be provided as more information becomes available. Motorists are encouraged to exercise caution and remain alert while navigating through the impacted sections of the highway.
