A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on U.S. Highway 101 South near the San Antonio Road off-ramp in Petaluma, CA. The incident involved a metallic gray Mercedes SUV and a gray Toyota Camry, with the Toyota sustaining significant front-end damage. A tow truck was called to the scene for the damaged vehicle, while the driveability of the Mercedes SUV remained uncertain.

Initially, one lane was blocked, leading to some delays for drivers in the area. Emergency response units promptly arrived to manage the situation and ensure safety. As traffic was redirected to the right, all lanes were ultimately reopened approximately one mile south of the San Antonio Road off-ramp.

The efficient actions of emergency responders helped to minimize congestion and restore normal traffic flow. Motorists experienced some backup during the incident, but the reopening of all lanes allowed for smoother travel as the evening commute progressed.

Drivers are advised to remain cautious and attentive while traveling through the area, especially during peak traffic hours. The California Highway Patrol monitored the situation to ensure continued safety on the roads.
