A traffic collision occurred today on State Route 60 East near South Atlantic Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA, leading to significant traffic delays during the evening rush hour. The incident involved two vehicles: a red Chevrolet Colorado and a gray Honda. The red Chevrolet Colorado was rendered undriveable and is currently blocking lanes one, two, and three of the highway.
Emergency units were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and assist with the situation. As a result of the collision, motorists experienced backups and congestion in the area, particularly as lanes were closed for the tow truck to remove the Chevrolet Colorado.
The gray Honda reportedly fled the scene shortly after the collision, and its current status remains unclear. In addition to the vehicle blockage, emergency responders noted a pothole hazard in lane three, which posed a risk to drivers and required attention.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays as cleanup efforts continue. The California Highway Patrol is actively managing the scene to ensure safety and restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.
