A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on the Interstate 105 East near Bellflower Boulevard in Downey, CA. The incident, which took place around 2:23 PM, involved a red Kia Sol and a motorcycle. Initial reports suggested a gray sedan was involved, but this was later confirmed to be inaccurate.
Emergency services quickly arrived at the scene to manage the situation, particularly in the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane. The HOV lane was temporarily closed, leading to significant traffic delays and congestion in the area as responders worked to clear the scene. A tow truck was called to assist in removing the vehicles involved.
As emergency personnel worked, traffic flow was disrupted, causing backups for motorists traveling through this busy section of the Interstate 105 East during the afternoon hours. The scene was cleared, and traffic began to resume its normal flow as the HOV lane was reopened.
This traffic incident serves as a reminder for drivers to remain vigilant and exercise caution while navigating busy roadways. Motorists are advised to stay alert for potential delays when traveling through this area.
