A traffic collision occurred today on State Route 57 South near Tonner Canyon in Brea, CA, significantly impacting traffic flow during the morning commute. The incident involved three vehicles: a black SUV that overturned and landed on its side, a truck that collided with a right-side wall, and a dark-colored SUV that made contact with the right guardrail.
Due to the positioning of the vehicles, the right lane was blocked, leading to traffic delays and congestion for motorists in the area. Emergency response units were promptly dispatched to manage the scene and direct traffic, ensuring safety while the situation was addressed. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the overturned vehicle and to clear the roadway.
As a result of the traffic incident, drivers experienced backups and were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays. Authorities worked diligently to restore normal traffic flow, and by mid-morning, efforts were underway to clear the scene and reopen the blocked lane.
Motorists are encouraged to remain cautious and stay informed about traffic conditions as the situation develops.
