A traffic collision on State Route 118 West at Interstate 5 North in San Fernando, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today during the early morning hours. The incident, which occurred around 3:45 AM, involved three vehicles: a grey Honda, a vehicle identified as “CD BLKING #1,” and a Suburban SUV that suffered a broken axle.
Emergency services responded promptly to manage the scene and control traffic flow. As a result of the collision, lane closures were implemented, leading to delays for morning commuters. The grey Honda and the “CD BLKING #1” were directly involved in the crash, while the Suburban SUV required a tow truck for removal.
By approximately 4:34 AM, emergency personnel had cleared the roadway of vehicles, allowing traffic to resume. However, the initial lane closures contributed to congestion in the area, affecting drivers on their way to work.
Authorities worked efficiently to redirect traffic and ensure the situation was under control. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the Suburban SUV, and by 4:42 AM, arrangements were made for its towing.
Motorists are advised to remain cautious while traveling through the area, as residual delays may still be present following the incident.
