A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on eastbound Interstate 10 (I-10) near Yucaipa Boulevard in Redlands, CA. The incident took place shortly after midnight and involved a white Ford Edge, which sustained front-end damage and stalled in the slow lane, and a semi truck that was struck and pulled over to the right shoulder.
The collision resulted in partial lane closures, leading to traffic management by multiple emergency response units on the scene. As vehicles swerved to avoid the stalled Ford Edge, drivers experienced delays and congestion in the area. The slow lane remained blocked, contributing to traffic backup for several hours.
Emergency responders worked diligently to manage the situation and control traffic flow, ensuring that vehicles could navigate the area safely. A tow truck was called to remove the damaged Ford Edge, which is expected to help alleviate some of the traffic issues as it clears the roadway.
Motorists are advised to exercise caution when traveling through this area and to anticipate possible delays as the situation is resolved. This traffic incident underscores the importance of remaining aware of road conditions and the potential for unexpected collisions during late-night hours.
