A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 405 (I-405) at La Tijera Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA. The incident took place around 4:30 PM and involved a grey van, an unknown vehicle, and a red pickup truck.
Emergency response units quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation and control traffic flow. The grey van and the unknown vehicle collided in the carpool lane, which subsequently led to the involvement of the red pickup truck. To alleviate the impact on traffic, some vehicles were moved to the shoulder, while one vehicle was towed from the scene.
The traffic incident resulted in lane closures, particularly affecting the high-occupancy vehicle lane and the number one lane, causing delays and backups for motorists in the area. Multiple units were deployed to ensure safety and facilitate the clearing of the roadway.
By approximately 5:15 PM, the roadway was reported to be clearing, but drivers should remain cautious and expect residual congestion as traffic begins to return to normal. This incident highlights the importance of adhering to traffic regulations and staying alert while driving to prevent future collisions.
