A significant traffic collision occurred today on the southbound lanes of State Route 170 (SR-170) near the Oxnard Street off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident involved six vehicles, including a white sedan, a white Ford F250, a black Nissan Altima, a silver Ford F150, a black Honda Civic, and a Dodge Avenger. The white Ford F250 is currently blocking the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane, leading to lane restrictions and traffic congestion in the area.
Emergency response teams from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) were dispatched to the scene to manage traffic and secure the area. Towing services are on the way for at least one vehicle, the Dodge Avenger, which is significantly damaged.
As a result of the traffic incident, drivers can expect delays and backups on the southbound side of SR-170, particularly near the Oxnard Street off-ramp. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid congestion and allow extra time for their travels.
The situation is ongoing, and authorities are working diligently to clear the scene and restore normal traffic flow. Travelers are encouraged to stay updated on traffic conditions as the response continues.
