A traffic collision occurred this morning on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 210 (I-210) at Polk Street in Los Angeles, CA, leading to significant traffic disruptions. The incident involved two vehicles: a silver Honda sedan and a white van. The white van was towed from the scene, while the silver Honda sedan remained drivable.
Emergency response teams were quickly dispatched to manage the situation, resulting in the closure of at least one lane on the busy highway. This lane closure caused delays and congestion during the morning commute, with traffic backing up as responders worked to clear the area.
Witnesses reported that the driver of the white van fled the scene on foot shortly after the collision. Multiple emergency units were present to ensure safety and facilitate traffic management. The presence of debris on the roadway required careful cleanup by the responding teams.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid potential delays as crews continue to address the aftermath of the traffic collision. The California Highway Patrol is actively managing the incident to restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.
Drivers are encouraged to remain vigilant and patient while navigating this area until the situation is fully resolved.
