A traffic collision on Interstate 405 North in Long Beach, CA, caused significant delays during the morning commute today. The incident involved three vehicles: two white vehicles and one black vehicle. One of the vehicles sustained considerable damage and was positioned in a way that blocked multiple lanes, leading to traffic congestion.

Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol and Long Beach Fire Department, responded promptly to the scene to manage traffic and secure the area. Officers worked to control the flow of vehicles and began releasing traffic as soon as it was safe to do so. The incident was reported around 9:56 AM, and by approximately 10:05 AM, emergency personnel had made significant progress in clearing the scene.

The black vehicle was noted to be in the fast lane, while the two white vehicles were located on the shoulder. The blockage of lanes resulted in a backup for drivers navigating through the area, causing delays until traffic could be restored to normal conditions.

Motorists are advised to remain vigilant and aware of their surroundings, especially during peak travel times. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor traffic conditions to ensure safety on the roads.
