A traffic collision involving two vehicles, a semi truck and a black Bentley, occurred today on the westbound lanes of Interstate 210 (I-210) at Lake Avenue in Pasadena, CA. The incident took place during the afternoon, resulting in significant traffic disruptions as multiple lanes were closed to manage the situation.
The black Bentley sustained visible damage to its left side, necessitating the involvement of a tow truck to remove the vehicle from the roadway. Emergency response units quickly arrived on the scene to implement traffic management measures aimed at controlling the flow of vehicles and minimizing congestion.
As a result of the collision, lanes three through six were temporarily shut down, while lanes one and two remained open to accommodate traffic. This led to delays and backups for motorists traveling through the area.
By approximately 3:30 PM, the California Highway Patrol announced that all lanes had been cleared and reopened, allowing traffic to resume normal flow. The swift response from emergency services helped to mitigate the impact on afternoon traffic, although some delays were experienced during the incident.
Motorists are reminded to remain cautious and attentive while driving, especially during busy traffic periods. This traffic collision highlights the importance of safe driving practices on California highways.
