A traffic collision on Interstate 5 (I-5) in Lebec, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today around noon. The incident involved three vehicles: a solo vehicle, a rental vehicle, and an unknown blue sedan. The solo vehicle suffered a tire blowout, resulting in it being pushed into the center median. The rental vehicle required towing due to damage from the crash.

As a result of the traffic incident, lanes one and two were closed to allow for emergency response and scene management. Multiple emergency units arrived promptly to control the situation and manage traffic flow, leading to potential delays for motorists in the area.

Drivers traveling northbound on I-5 should expect backups and congestion as the scene is cleared. The closure of two lanes may result in slower traffic conditions, particularly during the busy afternoon commute.

Authorities are working diligently to restore normal traffic patterns as quickly as possible. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes if feasible and remain cautious while navigating through the area. Updates will be provided as the situation develops and lanes are reopened.
