A significant traffic collision occurred today on the northbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 at South Lankershim Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA. The incident involved four vehicles, including a red SUV and a Mazda Miata, leading to major lane closures that caused slow-moving traffic during the early morning hours.

Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation. Multiple units were deployed to secure the roadway and facilitate traffic flow. As a result of the collision, the first lane was only open from Gower Street, creating delays and backups for commuters in the area. Witnesses reported that one vehicle had overturned, further complicating the traffic situation.

Traffic conditions remained challenging as emergency crews worked diligently to clear the scene. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the crash. All lanes remained blocked while crews continued to address the aftermath of the traffic incident.

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays and congestion on U.S. Highway 101. The situation is expected to improve as emergency responders work to clear the roadway and restore normal traffic flow.
