A traffic collision occurred this morning at the intersection of South Mission Road and Green Canyon Road in Fallbrook, CA, involving two vehicles: a trash truck and a gray Lexus sedan. The incident was reported at approximately 6:24 AM, causing significant disruptions during the morning commute.

Following the collision, both vehicles were moved to the right-hand side of the roadway. However, one vehicle struck a pole, leading to exposed wires and obstructions that blocked several lanes. Emergency services quickly responded to the scene to manage the situation and ensure safe traffic flow.

Traffic management teams cordoned off the affected lanes to address the hazards created by the downed pole and wires. As a result, drivers experienced delays and backups in the area, particularly during peak morning hours. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the collision.

Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid congestion while crews work to clear the scene and restore normal traffic conditions. Updates will be provided as the situation develops.
