A traffic collision on Interstate 5 North (I-5 N) in Los Angeles, CA, caused notable traffic disruptions today during the evening rush hour. The incident involved three vehicles: a white Toyota coach, a white Toyota Camry, and a white Kia sedan. The collision was reported around 6:25 PM, with initial reports indicating that the vehicles were blocking multiple lanes, leading to significant traffic congestion.
Emergency response units quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. By 6:46 PM, the roadway was cleared, allowing vehicles to resume normal movement. However, the incident resulted in delays for northbound traffic, particularly near the Sheldon exit, as motorists navigated through the affected area.
The swift actions of emergency personnel helped to minimize the impact on the evening commute, restoring traffic flow shortly after the incident was resolved. Drivers are urged to remain vigilant and cautious while traveling through busy areas, especially during peak hours.
As the California Highway Patrol continues to monitor traffic conditions, motorists are reminded to stay informed about potential delays and to drive safely.
