A significant traffic collision involving four vehicles, including two overturned semis and two box trucks, occurred today on northbound Interstate 5 (I-5) at Grapevine Road in Lebec, CA. The incident was reported around 11:36 AM and has caused major disruptions to traffic flow in the area.
The collision resulted in substantial vehicle damage, with the semis overturned and showing signs of fire. The box trucks were also overturned, and all damaged vehicles are expected to be non-drivable, necessitating towing. As a result, multiple lanes and the Grapevine Road off-ramp have been closed, leading to considerable delays and congestion for motorists.
California Highway Patrol (CHP) units are actively managing the scene, working to control traffic and ensure safety. Emergency response teams are on-site to facilitate the clearing of the roadway as quickly as possible. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid the backup, particularly during the busy morning commute.
As crews work to resolve the incident, drivers are encouraged to remain cautious and stay informed about traffic updates. The situation is evolving, and those traveling through Lebec, CA, should monitor local traffic reports for the latest information regarding road conditions and delays.
