A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred this morning on U.S. Highway 101 South at the Alameda Del Prado On-Ramp in Novato, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 7:25 AM and resulted in significant lane closures, impacting the morning commute for many drivers.

The vehicles involved included a KIA Sorento, a Ford F-150 pickup truck, and a white Honda Ridgeline, which is reported to be possibly totaled. Emergency response teams quickly arrived at the scene to manage traffic and control the situation. A tow truck was called for the KIA Sorento, while the Ford F-150 was making its own arrangements for towing.
