A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on Interstate 5 North (I-5 N) at the interchange with State Route 14 in Los Angeles, CA. The incident was reported around 12:14 PM and involved a white Chevrolet sedan and a grey SUV. Initially, one vehicle was deemed not drivable, but updates later indicated that at least one vehicle was able to be repositioned.

As emergency response units arrived, traffic was significantly affected, leading to all lanes being stopped just south of the State Route 14 interchange. This caused delays and congestion for motorists during the busy afternoon commute. By approximately 12:26 PM, both vehicles were moved to the roadside, allowing for the gradual reopening of lanes.

Multiple emergency response units were deployed to manage the scene and control traffic flow, ensuring the safety of all drivers. By 12:30 PM, traffic began to resume its normal pace, although residual delays may still be experienced in the area.

Motorists are advised to remain cautious and aware of their surroundings while traveling through this section of the highway. This incident highlights the importance of staying alert on the road, as unexpected events can occur at any time.
