A traffic collision involving four vehicles occurred today on Interstate 5 North near Garfield Avenue in Commerce, CA. The incident took place during the evening rush hour and involved a white semi-truck and a black sedan, among other vehicles. Initial reports indicated that the collision blocked the third lane and the fast lane, resulting in significant traffic delays and congestion in the area.

Emergency response units from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACOFD) quickly arrived on the scene to manage traffic flow and ensure safety. A tow truck was requested to assist with the removal of one vehicle that was located on the left shoulder, contributing to the traffic backup.

As responders worked to clear the scene, the blocked lanes caused increased delays for motorists. However, emergency crews progressively reopened all lanes and redirected vehicles to the right shoulder. By approximately 9:06 PM, all lanes were reported to be open, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow.

Motorists traveling on Interstate 5 North should remain cautious as residual congestion may linger following the traffic incident. Drivers are advised to stay updated on traffic conditions and plan their routes accordingly.
