A traffic collision involving two vehicles, a black Tesla Model Y and a Honda, occurred today on Interstate 5 North near Alameda Avenue in Burbank, CA. The incident took place during the morning commute, leading to significant traffic disruptions as the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane was blocked.

Emergency services responded swiftly, deploying multiple units to manage the scene and control traffic flow. Both vehicles remained on-site following the collision, and although a tow truck was initially requested, the request was later canceled. The blockage of the HOV lane resulted in delays and congestion for drivers traveling in the area.

As emergency responders worked to clear the scene, the Tesla and Honda were confirmed to be upright, but the obstruction continued to impact traffic. Authorities advised motorists to seek alternate routes to avoid the affected area and reduce delays.

By mid-morning, the roadway was cleared, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. The California Highway Patrol and Burbank Fire Department collaborated to ensure the safe management of the incident. Motorists are reminded to stay alert and drive cautiously in the vicinity of traffic incidents.
