A traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 880 North at the 7th Street off-ramp in Oakland, CA, involving four vehicles. The incident took place around 2:41 PM, causing significant disruptions during the busy afternoon traffic period.
The collision involved a gray four-door Kia Sportage and a white box truck, along with two additional vehicles. The slow lane was blocked as a result of the crash, leading to delays and congestion for drivers in the area. Emergency response teams arrived promptly to manage the situation and ensure traffic flow was restored as quickly as possible.
A tow truck was requested to remove the Kia Sportage from the scene, which was unable to continue driving due to the collision. The blockage in the slow lane contributed to a backup that affected traffic on Interstate 880 North, prompting motorists to seek alternate routes.
