A traffic collision on State Route 163 North in San Diego, CA, has resulted in significant traffic disruptions today. The incident, involving two vehicles—a green Toyota Yaris and a dark SUV—occurred around 9:19 PM. The dark SUV flipped over, blocking the slow lane and leading to lane closures and the complete shutdown of the ramp from State Route 163 to Westbound Interstate 8.

Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation and ensure safety. A tow truck was dispatched to remove the green Toyota Yaris, which was marked for towing. Traffic management measures were implemented to direct vehicles away from the affected area, causing delays and congestion for motorists.
