A significant traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 10 East near Mount Vernon Avenue in Colton, CA, causing major disruptions during the morning commute. The incident involved four vehicles: a black Ford Mustang, a red Coca Cola semi-truck, an unidentified semi-truck, and a solo vehicle that struck a wall.
Witnesses reported that the Coca Cola semi rear-ended another vehicle at high speed, leading to a loss of control and multiple collisions in the construction zone. This caused all lanes on Interstate 10 East to be stopped, resulting in considerable delays and congestion for morning commuters.
