A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today at the junction of U.S. Highway 50 West and Interstate 5 North in Sacramento, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 2:44 PM and involved a green Subaru, a white Toyota Highlander, and a white Ford van.
Emergency response units quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. During the incident, at least one lane, specifically Lane 3, remained open, allowing some vehicles to pass through. However, motorists experienced delays as responders worked to clear the area and reposition the vehicles involved.
By around 3:14 PM, Lane 3 was confirmed to be fully open, which helped alleviate the congestion that had built up during the incident. The two vehicles that were not drivable were relocated to the Jefferson Road exit, further improving traffic flow on the highway.
Drivers in the Sacramento area are advised to remain cautious and expect potential residual delays as traffic returns to normal. This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially during peak travel times.
