A traffic collision occurred today on State Route 118 East near Wood Alamos Canyon Road in Simi Valley, CA, causing significant traffic disruptions. The incident involved four vehicles, including a Jeep Wrangler that overturned and a white Kia with damage to its right front tire.
Emergency response teams, including multiple California Highway Patrol units, were dispatched to the scene shortly after the collision was reported around 11:50 PM. The response included securing the area and managing traffic flow, as one lane remained open for travel. This lane restriction led to delays and congestion for drivers in the area.
By approximately 12:13 AM, one lane was confirmed to be open, allowing some traffic to resume. However, motorists were advised to expect backups as the scene was being cleared. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the damaged vehicles, ensuring that traffic could return to normal as quickly as possible.
The traffic incident serves as a reminder for drivers to exercise caution, especially during late-night hours when visibility may be reduced. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor the situation to facilitate safe travel for all motorists.
