A significant traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 5 North (I-5 N) at the intersection with US 50 in Sacramento, CA, causing major disruptions during the morning commute. The incident involved three vehicles: a red Honda, a blue Toyota Prius, and a red sedan. Witnesses reported that the red Honda lost control and hydroplaned due to wet roadway conditions, leading to the crash.

As a result of this traffic incident, all northbound lanes on I-5 are currently blocked, resulting in substantial traffic delays and congestion in the area.
