A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on Interstate 80 East at the Farad Road On-Ramp in Mystic, CA. The incident was reported around 8:04 PM and involved a white semi truck and a solo vehicle. Due to the collision, the second lane was closed, resulting in traffic delays and congestion in the area.
Emergency response units from the California Highway Patrol quickly arrived to manage the scene and direct traffic. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of one of the vehicles, while the other was left drivable. The presence of debris and damage to the guard rail further complicated traffic flow, leading to backups for motorists during the evening commute.
As crews worked to clear the scene and repair the guard rail, drivers were advised to expect delays and to consider alternative routes if possible. The California Highway Patrol remained on-site to ensure safety and facilitate the restoration of normal traffic conditions.
Motorists are encouraged to stay informed about traffic updates and to exercise caution while navigating through the affected area. The situation is being managed to minimize disruption and restore smooth traffic flow as quickly as possible.
