A traffic collision occurred today on Elkhorn Boulevard East On-Ramp to State Route 99 North in Sacramento, CA, involving three vehicles: a big rig, a Ford Super Duty, and a silver Ford Fusion. The incident took place around 8:09 AM during the busy morning commute, significantly impacting traffic flow in the area.
The collision involved the green semi truck and the silver Ford Fusion, which sustained extensive damage and was rendered undrivable. As a result, lane restrictions were implemented along Elkhorn Boulevard, leading to delays and potential congestion for motorists traveling through this route.
Emergency response units quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation and facilitate the removal of the damaged vehicles. A tow truck was called to assist with the Ford Super Duty, which was unable to be driven due to its condition. The presence of emergency personnel and ongoing scene management may contribute to traffic backup as crews work to clear the area.
