A traffic collision on Interstate 15 North near State Route 138 in Phelan, CA, has caused notable disruptions today. The incident involved two vehicles: an unknown car blocking lane one and an unknown-colored minivan that had stalled in the same lane. The minivan was reported to be smoking, prompting a swift emergency response.
Due to the positioning of the vehicles, several lanes were obstructed, leading to traffic congestion and delays for drivers in the area. Emergency units were dispatched to manage the situation, with some responders arriving on the scene while others were en route. A tow truck was requested to assist in removing the stalled minivan, and additional towing services were called to handle the vehicle that had gone down an embankment.

However, during the early morning hours, motorists experienced backups as they navigated around the blocked lanes. Drivers are advised to remain cautious and expect potential delays in the vicinity as cleanup operations were underway.
