A traffic collision on US Highway 101 North at Holly Street Off-Ramp in San Carlos, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred around 9:45 PM and involved two vehicles: a silver Toyota SUV with moderate rear-end damage that was declared not drivable and a Tesla vehicle that also required towing.
Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation. A portion of the roadway was closed to facilitate the safe removal of the vehicles, leading to traffic delays and congestion in the area. Multiple emergency traffic management units were deployed to control the flow of traffic and ensure safety for all motorists.
The Toyota SUV was unable to be driven due to damage to its rear axle, necessitating the involvement of a tow truck for its removal. Shortly after, another tow truck was requested for the Tesla, which had sustained significant front-end damage.
Motorists traveling on US Highway 101 North should anticipate backups and plan for delays as the situation is resolved. The roadway is expected to return to normal conditions once all vehicles are cleared and the scene is fully managed. Drivers are advised to stay informed and exercise caution while navigating the area as emergency crews continue their work.
