A traffic collision on State College Boulevard North Onramp in Orange, CA, has resulted in significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred during the morning commute at approximately 9:29 AM and involved two vehicles, including a white Tesla that was rendered undriveable and another vehicle that was dragged to the crash divider.
The collision caused both the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane and mid lanes to be blocked, leading to lane closures and controlled traffic management by emergency response units. Motorists experienced delays as traffic congestion built up in the area, impacting those traveling through this busy stretch.
Emergency response teams arrived quickly to manage the situation. A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the removal of the damaged Tesla, which sustained front-end damage. Traffic control measures were implemented to ensure safety and facilitate the clearing of lanes.
By 10:04 AM, the HOV lane was cleared, and all vehicles were moved to the crash divider, allowing traffic to resume more smoothly. However, motorists are still advised to remain cautious and expect residual delays as the area returns to normal traffic flow.
Drivers are encouraged to seek alternative routes if possible to avoid any further congestion caused by this traffic incident.
