A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 (US-101) at the interchange with U.S. Highway 10 East (I-10) in Los Angeles, CA. The incident took place during the early morning hours, specifically at approximately 2:02 AM, involving a black Toyota Prius and a black Honda Civic.
Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, leading to multiple lane closures and a temporary blockage of the roadway as they managed the situation. This resulted in significant traffic delays and congestion for motorists navigating through this busy interchange during the early morning hours.
By 2:47 AM, emergency responders had cleared the roadway, allowing traffic to resume normal flow. However, the initial lane closures caused backups that affected the morning commute for many drivers. Motorists were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays until the situation was fully resolved.
This traffic incident underscores the importance of safe driving practices, particularly in high-traffic areas. The California Highway Patrol was on site to ensure traffic management and assist in clearing the scene efficiently.
