A traffic collision on State Route 99 South in Sacramento, CA, caused significant disruptions during the morning commute today. The incident involved three vehicles, including a Honda CRV, which sustained damage after colliding with a large piece of equipment obstructing the right lane.
Emergency services responded quickly, deploying multiple units to manage the scene and control traffic flow. Due to the blocked equipment, lane restrictions were put in place, resulting in noticeable delays and congestion for drivers in the area. At least two of the vehicles were assigned towing services to clear the roadway, while one vehicle declined towing assistance.
As crews worked to remove the large metal object blocking the off-ramp at 47th Avenue, traffic continued to be affected. The situation required additional tow trucks to assist with the removal of the damaged vehicles and the equipment.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid the traffic backup caused by this collision. Authorities are actively working to restore normal traffic conditions as quickly as possible.
Drivers are encouraged to remain cautious and stay informed about ongoing traffic incidents in the area.
