A traffic collision on the eastbound lanes of Interstate 105 (I-105) near Lakewood Boulevard in Downey, CA, has caused significant traffic delays today. The incident involved two vehicles, including a silver Jeep Compass, which required tow service, while the other vehicle remained at the scene under the supervision of California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers.

The collision occurred during the evening commute, leading to heavy congestion and slow-moving traffic on the eastbound I-105.

Traffic flow was severely impacted, resulting in lane slowdowns and backups that extended for several miles. Motorists are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid delays while the scene is being cleared. CHP is actively working to restore normal traffic conditions as quickly as possible.

Drivers should remain cautious and attentive in the area as cleanup efforts continue. This traffic incident serves as a reminder of the importance of safe driving practices and being aware of surrounding vehicles, especially during peak traffic hours.
