A traffic collision occurred today on US Highway 101 North near Tujunga Avenue in Los Angeles, CA, involving three vehicles: a gray Kia sedan, a white vehicle, and a heavily damaged Kia SUV that required towing. The incident was reported around 2:01 PM, resulting in debris scattered across multiple lanes, including lane #5, which was blocked.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) quickly responded to the scene, coordinating with fire units and towing services to manage the situation. As a result of the traffic incident, significant delays and congestion were reported, particularly affecting the afternoon commute for many drivers.
Emergency responders worked diligently to clear the debris and remove the damaged vehicles, aiming to restore normal traffic flow as soon as possible. The blockage of lane #5 contributed to a backup that extended beyond the immediate area, prompting the CHP to implement traffic management measures to ensure safety and minimize disruptions.
Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes and remain cautious while navigating the area as cleanup efforts continue. The CHP is actively managing the situation to facilitate the safe passage of vehicles. Updates on traffic conditions will be provided as the situation develops.
