A traffic collision on US Highway 101 South in South San Francisco, CA, caused significant disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident involved two vehicles: a black vehicle and a white or gray sedan. The collision occurred around 6:17 AM, leading to the blockage of the slow lane and resulting in traffic delays for motorists in the area.
Emergency response teams were dispatched quickly to manage the scene and direct traffic. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the vehicles, as one or both may not have been drivable. The white sedan ended up sideways against the wall, complicating the traffic situation further. Debris from the collision, including a roof rack that detached from one of the vehicles, landed in the northbound lanes of US Highway 101, creating additional hazards for drivers.
As emergency units worked to clear the scene, traffic in the vicinity experienced backups, with motorists advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays. By mid-morning, the situation was under control, but drivers were still encouraged to remain cautious as cleanup efforts continued. This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices to prevent traffic collisions and ensure the safety of all road users.
