A significant traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 215 South at the State Route 60 interchange in Riverside, CA, causing major disruptions during the morning commute. The incident involved two vehicles: a black Tesla and a grey Hyundai, along with a black Honda and a grey sedan. At least one vehicle was rendered non-drivable and was positioned roadside, prompting the response of multiple emergency units to manage the situation.

Initially, all lanes were closed, leading to substantial delays and traffic backup in the area. As emergency responders worked to clear the scene, only lane four was reopened, allowing for partial traffic flow. Motorists should expect ongoing congestion as cleanup efforts continue.

A tow truck was called to assist with the removal of the disabled vehicles, and additional units were requested to help manage the traffic incident. The response team is actively controlling the scene to ensure safety and facilitate the reopening of more lanes as soon as possible.

Drivers are advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays and remain cautious while navigating through the affected area. This traffic collision serves as a reminder to stay alert and drive safely, especially during peak traffic hours.
