A significant traffic collision occurred today on State Route 60 East at the intersection of Main Street in Riverside, CA, involving five vehicles: a stalled white vehicle, a gray/blue Maverick truck, a semi truck, a Ford Bronco, and the trailer associated with the semi. The incident caused lane closures, severely impacting traffic flow during the morning commute.
Emergency services quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and ensure safety. Multiple units were deployed to control the situation and assist with towing the vehicles involved. To mitigate congestion, an open High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane was maintained, along with designated entry and exit points.
Despite these efforts, motorists experienced delays and backups in the area as crews worked to clear the roadway. The collision, particularly involving the semi truck and Ford Bronco, created challenges for responders, but traffic management units were effective in directing vehicles and facilitating the towing process.
As the situation is being resolved, drivers are advised to remain cautious and expect potential delays in the vicinity. This traffic incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially during busy travel times.
