A traffic collision on the eastbound State Route 60 near Diamond Bar Boulevard in Diamond Bar, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions this morning. The incident involved three vehicles: a Toyota, a white sedan, and a black Honda.
The collision was reported at approximately 3:54 AM and resulted in lane closures, including the High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane and adjacent lanes, leading to heavy congestion during the morning commute.

The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor the situation to ensure safe passage for all drivers. For those planning to travel on State Route 60, it is advisable to seek alternate routes or allow for extra travel time due to the lingering effects of this traffic incident.
