A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on Interstate 605 South, near the intersection with State Route 60 in the City of Industry, CA. The incident took place around 2:23 PM and involved a blue BMW X5 and an unknown vehicle. As a result of the collision, the first lane and the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane were temporarily blocked, leading to significant traffic delays and congestion for drivers in the area.
Emergency response teams, including the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the Los Angeles County Fire Department (LACOFD), quickly arrived on the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. A tow truck was dispatched to remove the blue BMW X5, which was unable to be moved from its location. The blocked lanes caused backups, particularly during the busy afternoon commute.
By approximately 3:24 PM, all lanes were cleared and reopened, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. However, motorists may still experience residual congestion as traffic gradually returns to normal. This traffic incident highlights the importance of remaining vigilant and adhering to traffic regulations to ensure safety on California's highways.
