A traffic collision on Interstate 15 North in San Diego, CA, has caused significant disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident involved a single vehicle, a white Tesla, which sustained damage and raised concerns about its driveability. As a result, one lane on the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) roadway has been blocked, leading to traffic delays.
