A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on State Route 170 North at Roscoe Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 3:26 PM when a black pickup truck collided with a gray Ford F15. Both vehicles were quickly moved to the roadside, but the collision caused slow lane conditions along this busy highway.

Emergency traffic management units were dispatched to the scene to control the situation and minimize traffic disruption. Their swift response helped manage the flow of vehicles in the area. As the afternoon rush hour approached, drivers experienced delays and congestion, particularly in the slow lane, which was blocked for a period.
