A traffic collision involving two vehicles, a white semi truck and a black Chevrolet Tahoe, occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 5 (I-5) near the Templin Highway off-ramp in Castaic, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 6:54 AM, coinciding with the busy morning commute.
The collision caused the semi truck to partially block a slow lane, resulting in debris on the roadway. This led to significant traffic congestion and delays for motorists traveling along the northbound I-5 corridor. Emergency responders arrived promptly to manage the scene, implementing partial lane closures to facilitate the removal of the vehicles and debris.
A flatbed tow truck was dispatched to assist with the black Chevrolet Tahoe, which was unable to continue driving due to damage sustained in the collision. As emergency personnel worked to clear the area, traffic was slowed, and drivers experienced backups in the vicinity.
Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect delays while the situation is being resolved. The California Highway Patrol is actively managing the incident to restore normal traffic flow as quickly as possible.
