A traffic collision involving two vehicles, a white 2018 Cadillac ATS and a semi-truck, occurred today on Interstate 215 South near the Interstate 10 interchange in Colton, CA. The incident took place around 4:18 AM, causing significant disruptions for morning commuters.

The collision happened when the Cadillac struck tire debris from the semi-truck, which had lost a tire tread in the second lane. This debris created hazardous conditions, leading to a slow lane being blocked and impacting traffic flow. As a result, drivers experienced delays and congestion in the area.

Emergency response teams arrived quickly to manage the scene and control traffic. The semi-truck remained on-site, likely awaiting mechanical assistance, while a tow truck was called for the Cadillac, which was declared non-drivable. The presence of debris and the disabled vehicle contributed to ongoing traffic backup, prompting multiple units to assist with traffic management.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through this area and to expect potential delays as cleanup efforts continue. Authorities are working diligently to clear the scene and restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.
