A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on Interstate 605 South near the interchange with State Route 60 in City of Industry, CA. The incident was reported around 4:29 PM and involved a black Tesla Model Y, a red pickup truck, and a silver vehicle, likely a Toyota Camry.
The collision resulted in significant lane blockages, including the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane and at least one additional lane, leading to traffic congestion in the area. Emergency units were dispatched promptly to manage the scene and facilitate traffic control.
As a result of the traffic incident, motorists experienced delays and backups, particularly for those traveling northbound just south of Whittier. Emergency responders worked diligently to clear the roadway and restore normal traffic flow.
By approximately 5:06 PM, all vehicles involved were moved to the right shoulder, allowing for the reopening of the HOV lane and alleviating some of the congestion. However, drivers were advised to remain cautious and expect residual delays as traffic began to normalize in the aftermath of the incident.
Authorities continue to monitor the situation to ensure safe travel conditions for all motorists.
