A significant traffic collision occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 110 (I-110) at West 1st Street in Los Angeles, CA, causing major traffic disruptions during the early morning hours. The incident involved three vehicles: a white sedan, a white SUV, and another SUV with rear axle damage.
The collision led to complete lane blockages on I-110, creating substantial delays for morning commuters. Emergency response units quickly arrived to manage the situation and control traffic flow. Initially, all northbound lanes were closed, resulting in a backup that extended for several miles.
Tow trucks were dispatched to assist with the removal of the damaged vehicles, particularly the SUV that was missing a rear wheel. By approximately 2:52 AM, emergency crews managed to open two of the northbound lanes, but significant congestion remained as vehicles continued to approach the area.
Traffic management efforts were implemented to redirect drivers and alleviate some of the delays. Motorists are advised to seek alternate routes if traveling near I-110 and West 1st Street, as residual traffic congestion is expected to linger throughout the morning. Updates will be provided as the situation develops.
