A traffic collision on Interstate 10 East (I-10 E) in Baldwin Park, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions this morning. The incident, which occurred around 10:59 AM, involved two vehicles: a gray 2-door BMW and a white BMW. The gray BMW became immobilized and required towing, while the white BMW was also involved in the crash.
As a result of the collision, multiple lanes were blocked, including the express lanes and potentially the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane. This blockage led to delays and congestion for drivers during the busy morning commute. California Highway Patrol (CHP) units responded quickly to manage the scene and facilitate roadway clearance.
By 11:29 AM, a tow truck arrived to assist with the removal of the gray BMW, which had been obstructing the first lane of the express lanes. CHP worked diligently to clear the roadway, and by 11:51 AM, all lanes were reported clear. However, the incident caused a backup for motorists navigating through the area, highlighting the importance of caution and patience during such traffic incidents.
Motorists are encouraged to stay updated on traffic conditions and to consider alternate routes if necessary. The CHP remains vigilant in monitoring the situation to ensure safe travel for all drivers in Baldwin Park, CA.
