A traffic collision occurred today on the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 near the Santa Rosa Avenue South on-ramp in Rohnert Park, CA. The incident involved two vehicles: a Chevrolet Bolt and a Mercedes G Class, both of which sustained damage.
The collision was reported around 2:54 PM, blocking approximately 80 percent of the on-ramp. This significant obstruction led to traffic delays and congestion, as vehicles were forced to detour around the area. Emergency responders quickly arrived to manage the situation, directing traffic and securing the scene.
Tow trucks were dispatched to remove the damaged vehicles, with the Chevrolet Bolt requiring significant attention due to major front-end damage. By 4:15 PM, both vehicles had been cleared from the roadway, allowing traffic to gradually return to normal.
Motorists traveling through Rohnert Park should remain aware of potential residual delays following the incident. This traffic collision serves as a reminder of the importance of safe driving practices and the impact that such incidents can have on traffic flow, particularly during the afternoon commute.
Drivers are encouraged to stay informed about traffic conditions and consider alternative routes to avoid any lingering backups in the vicinity of U.S. Highway 101.
