A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 105 (I-105) at Paramount Boulevard in South Gate, CA. The incident took place around 5:39 AM during the morning commute, leading to significant traffic disruptions.
The vehicles involved in the crash were a white Ford Ranger and a blue Hyundai Pilot. Both vehicles remained on the scene, with the white pickup truck blocking the number one lane and the blue SUV in the number two lane. This blockage resulted in lane closures, particularly affecting the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane, which contributed to delays and congestion for drivers in the area.
Emergency response teams were dispatched promptly to manage the situation and control traffic flow. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the collision. By approximately 6:05 AM, the tow truck arrived on site to facilitate the clearing of the roadway.
Motorists traveling through South Gate are advised to expect delays and consider alternative routes to avoid the congested area. The California Highway Patrol is on scene to ensure safety and assist with traffic management until the situation is resolved.
