A significant traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 15 South near Camino Del Norte in San Diego, CA, involving three vehicles: a tan truck, a white Tesla, and an unknown vehicle. The incident was reported at approximately 8:55 AM, leading to major traffic disruptions during the morning commute.

Emergency response teams arrived promptly at the scene, deploying multiple traffic management units to control the situation and alleviate congestion. The collision resulted in the closure of both the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and the main traffic lanes, creating significant backups for motorists.

Traffic management crews worked diligently to restore normal traffic flow, directing vehicles around the blockage. A tow truck was called to assist with the recovery of the involved vehicles, while crews also addressed oil spills on the roadway, which further complicated the situation.

As the cleanup continued, drivers faced delays and congestion in the area. The HOV lanes remained closed for an extended period, and additional lane closures were implemented to facilitate the cleanup efforts. Motorists are advised to remain cautious and expect delays as crews work to clear the area.

For those traveling in the vicinity, it is recommended to seek alternate routes to avoid the affected stretch of Interstate 15 South.
