A traffic incident occurred today on Interstate 405 South in Long Beach, CA, involving two vehicles. The collision involved a blue Honda that was found overturned on its roof and a Subaru that also overturned, blocking the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane.
The incident took place during the busy morning commute, leading to significant traffic disruptions. Both vehicles obstructed the HOV lane, prompting lane closures and traffic diversions. As a result, drivers experienced delays and congestion in the area as they navigated around the scene.
Emergency response units arrived promptly to manage the situation and control traffic flow. Towing services were dispatched to remove the overturned vehicles, which helped in clearing the roadway and restoring normal traffic conditions.
By mid-morning, emergency personnel were able to facilitate the removal of the vehicles, allowing for the gradual reopening of the HOV lane. Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect residual delays as traffic begins to normalize.
