A traffic collision on southbound Interstate 5 (I-5) at Arburua Road in Los Banos, CA, has caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident, which involved two vehicles—a white Ford Explorer and a gray BMW—occurred during the morning commute around 10:26 AM.
As a result of the collision, lane closures were implemented, leading to delays and congestion for drivers in the area. Emergency response teams quickly arrived to manage the situation. A tow truck was dispatched to remove the white Ford Explorer, which was confirmed to be inoperable. The gray BMW was located off the roadway in a ditch and remains at the scene pending recovery.
Traffic management units were deployed to assist with the flow of vehicles and ensure safety for all motorists. The lane closures are expected to contribute to backups on southbound I-5, impacting the typical flow of traffic during peak hours. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes if possible to avoid delays.
As the situation develops, drivers should remain cautious and attentive while navigating through the affected area. Authorities are working diligently to clear the scene and restore normal traffic conditions as quickly as possible.
