A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on State Route 56 East at the Interstate 15 West interchange in San Diego, CA, causing notable traffic disruptions during the morning commute. The incident involved a white sedan that was found lying sideways in the roadway, alongside another white vehicle and an unknown-colored SUV. One vehicle reportedly collided with trees, suggesting it may not be drivable and could require towing.

Emergency response units were dispatched promptly to manage the scene and facilitate traffic control. As a result of the collision, lane impacts were reported on the highway approach, leading to delays and congestion for drivers navigating this busy intersection.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution and consider alternative routes to avoid potential backups, as traffic flow is expected to remain slow until the vehicles are cleared from the roadway. The presence of emergency responders is also likely to contribute to slower traffic conditions in the area.

This traffic incident underscores the importance of safe driving practices, particularly in high-traffic zones. Authorities are actively working to restore normal traffic conditions as quickly as possible.

Drivers are encouraged to stay informed about traffic updates and plan their routes accordingly to minimize delays.
