A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on Interstate 5 North near the Sunland Boulevard off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident took place around 4:56 PM, involving a blue Toyota Yaris and a white sedan, both of which ended up on their sides. This resulted in the closure of the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane and one additional lane, significantly impacting traffic flow.
Emergency response units arrived promptly to manage the scene and direct traffic. A tow truck was called to assist in removing the overturned vehicles from the roadway. As a result of the collision, drivers experienced delays and congestion in the area, particularly during the busy afternoon commute.
The closure of the HOV lane and one lane on Interstate 5 North is expected to create backups for motorists traveling through this corridor. Commuters are advised to seek alternate routes if possible and to exercise caution while navigating through the affected area.
Emergency responders worked diligently to clear the scene and restore normal traffic conditions. Updates will be provided as the situation develops and lanes are reopened.
