A traffic collision occurred this morning on State Route 60 East near Peck Road in South El Monte, CA, involving two vehicles: a white Toyota Camry and an unknown vehicle. The incident resulted in one vehicle rolling over, leading to significant lane blockages that disrupted traffic flow during the busy morning commute.
Emergency response units were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and control the situation. The overturned vehicle obstructed the middle lanes, prompting authorities to divert traffic off the freeway. This diversion caused delays and congestion for motorists in the area.
By approximately 7:35 AM, the roadway was cleared, and vehicles were removed from the scene, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow. The quick response from emergency units helped to minimize the impact on the surrounding traffic, although some residual delays may still be experienced as conditions return to normal.
Motorists are encouraged to stay informed about traffic updates and to drive cautiously in the area. This incident highlights the importance of being aware of road conditions and the potential for unexpected delays during peak travel times.
