A traffic collision occurred today on the southbound lanes of Interstate 405 (I-405) near the Howard Hughes Parkway off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident involved a single vehicle that struck a roadside wall, resulting in significant lane closures and disrupting traffic flow in the area.
Emergency units responded promptly to manage the scene and control traffic. The vehicle ended up facing sideways, blocking multiple lanes, which led to increased congestion and delays for motorists during the early morning hours. A tow truck was called to assist in clearing the roadway, but the incident caused a backup that affected the morning commute for many drivers.
The collision was reported at approximately 1:08 AM, and emergency responders worked diligently to redirect vehicles and minimize disruption. Traffic management efforts were implemented to ensure safety and facilitate the safe removal of the vehicle from the roadway.
Motorists traveling through this area should anticipate delays and consider alternative routes until the situation is fully resolved. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor traffic conditions as they work to restore normalcy on this busy stretch of highway.
