The incident was reported at approximately 9:07 PM and involved a Black BMW and an unknown vehicle, both of which were located in the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane.
Emergency services responded promptly, dispatching units to manage the scene and control traffic flow. The blockage of the HOV lane resulted in significant delays and congestion for motorists in the area.

Motorists traveling through Riverside, CA, should remain vigilant and expect residual delays as traffic begins to normalize following this traffic collision. This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially in high-traffic areas where collisions can disrupt the flow of vehicles.
