A traffic collision involving four vehicles occurred this morning on State Route 60 East at Greenwood Avenue in Monterey Park, CA. The incident was reported around 5:41 AM and caused significant disruptions during the morning commute.
The vehicles involved included a gray Hyundai Elantra and a black or blue Tesla SUV, with another Tesla facing the wrong way in lane one. The collision blocked multiple lanes, leading to temporary stops and delays for drivers in the area.

By 6:10 AM, all lanes were temporarily stopped to ensure the safety of responders and to facilitate the clearing of the wreckage. Traffic began to resume around 6:20 AM when all lanes were reopened, but the earlier blockage resulted in backups that affected morning traffic flow.
