A significant traffic collision occurred today at the intersection of State Route 4 West and Morello Avenue in Martinez, CA, causing major disruptions to evening traffic. The incident involved two grey vehicles: one that spun out and possibly lost a tire, and a grey sports vehicle. As a result of the collision, multiple lanes were blocked, leading to substantial traffic delays and congestion in the area.
Emergency response units were quickly dispatched to manage the scene and control traffic flow. At least one vehicle required towing, which added to the complexity of the situation. The blocked lanes created a backup that extended for several blocks, affecting drivers navigating through this busy intersection.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid the area, as traffic remains heavily congested. Emergency crews are actively working to clear the vehicles and restore normal traffic patterns, but delays are expected to persist until the scene is fully cleared.
Drivers are encouraged to stay informed about traffic conditions and plan their routes accordingly to minimize travel time. This traffic incident highlights the importance of remaining vigilant and cautious while driving, especially in high-traffic areas.
