A traffic collision on Interstate 210 West in Arcadia, CA, disrupted the afternoon commute today. The incident, which occurred around 1:15 PM, involved three vehicles: a red truck, a white Camaro, and a black Mustang. The collision resulted in the blockage of the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane and one additional lane, leading to noticeable traffic congestion and delays for motorists in the area.
Emergency services quickly arrived to manage the scene and ensure safety. Although towing was initially scheduled for one of the vehicles, it was later canceled, allowing the vehicles to remain on-site while traffic was being managed. As a result, all lanes were temporarily halted as responders worked to clear the roadway.
By approximately 1:43 PM, the roadway was cleared, and traffic began to resume its normal flow. However, drivers experienced backups during the incident, particularly during the busy afternoon hours. Motorists are encouraged to remain vigilant and prepared for potential residual congestion as traffic returns to its regular pace.
