A traffic collision on State Route 91 East in Cerritos, CA, caused significant disruptions during the early morning hours today. The incident, which involved two vehicles—a black Tesla and a 2017 Honda Civic—occurred around 2:58 AM. The Tesla was reported to have spun out, resulting in blockage of the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane, which contributed to traffic congestion in the area.

Emergency response units arrived quickly to manage the situation, implementing lane closures that affected the flow of traffic. As a result, motorists experienced delays and backups along the route. Witnesses reported the presence of the Honda Civic, which was noted at the scene but did not appear to be directly involved in the collision.

By approximately 3:22 AM, emergency crews had cleared the roadway, and both vehicles were released from the scene, with tow requests canceled. Traffic was gradually released, allowing vehicles to resume their normal flow.

This traffic incident underscores the importance of safe driving practices, especially during early morning hours when visibility may be reduced. Drivers are advised to remain vigilant and aware of their surroundings to help prevent similar incidents in the future.
