A traffic collision on Interstate 210 West in Rialto, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred early in the morning, around 3:09 AM, when a grey Volkswagen left the roadway and came to rest on an embankment near the Pepper Avenue off-ramp. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) and other agencies responded quickly to manage the scene and control traffic flow.
Due to the vehicle's position, access to the off-ramp was restricted, leading to lane closures and potential delays for morning commuters.

The tow truck arrived shortly after the initial report, and the vehicle was cleared from the area by approximately 4:14 AM.
