A traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 805 South near the 43rd Street off-ramp in San Diego, CA, significantly impacting traffic flow during the morning commute. The incident involved five vehicles, including one identified as a Ford, with several others remaining stalled in the roadway.
As a result of the collision, metal debris was scattered across multiple lanes, creating hazardous conditions for drivers. Additionally, a missing traffic sign in the high-occupancy vehicle lane further complicated navigation for motorists. The ongoing construction in the area contributed to lane closures and increased congestion.
Emergency response teams, including multiple law enforcement units, were dispatched to manage the scene and direct traffic. A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of one vehicle that was unable to move. The situation led to significant delays, and motorists were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid backups.
Traffic conditions are being monitored as crews work to clear the roadway and restore normal traffic patterns. Updates will be provided as the response continues. Drivers are encouraged to remain cautious and attentive while navigating through the area.
