A traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 10 West near North Dudley Street in Pomona, CA, significantly impacting traffic flow during the morning commute. The incident involved five vehicles, including a gray SUV, a gray pickup, a FORD truck, a FORD F15, and another vehicle that rolled over but remained upright.
The collision blocked the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane, leading to delays and congestion for drivers in the area. Emergency response teams from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACOFD) quickly arrived to manage the scene and implement traffic control measures.
A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the removal of one vehicle, which sustained considerable front-end damage. As crews worked to clear the scene, traffic management efforts were put in place to alleviate the backup caused by the incident.
By approximately 9:17 AM, the HOV lane was cleared, allowing traffic to resume more smoothly. However, motorists were advised to remain cautious as residual delays were expected while the area returned to normal conditions. This traffic incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially during peak travel times.
