A traffic collision on the northbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 near the Topanga Canyon Boulevard off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident involved two vehicles: a white SUV that reportedly left the scene and a silver Mercedes sedan that remained at the location.
The collision resulted in the complete blockage of the off-ramp, leading to lane closures and substantial delays for motorists during the early morning hours. Traffic was significantly impacted, with congestion extending onto the main highway, affecting the flow of vehicles in the area.
Multiple units from the California Highway Patrol were dispatched to manage the traffic situation and control the scene. Officers worked to redirect traffic and ensure safety for all drivers. A tow truck was called to remove the silver Mercedes from the scene, while efforts were made to locate the white SUV.
Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid the ongoing traffic incident and to remain cautious as cleanup efforts continue. The situation is expected to improve as the vehicles are cleared and normal traffic flow is restored. Drivers should stay updated on traffic conditions and allow extra time for travel due to potential delays caused by this traffic collision.
