A traffic collision on Interstate 10 West in Los Angeles, CA, caused significant traffic disruptions today. The incident occurred around 12:45 PM and involved two vehicles: a white BMW SUV and a black SUV. Following the collision, the white BMW SUV was rolled onto the curb due to a rear axle issue, while the status of the black SUV was not specified.
Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD), quickly responded to the scene to manage traffic flow and ensure safety. At least one lane, specifically lane #2, was blocked, leading to delays and congestion in the area. Authorities worked diligently to clear the scene and restore normal traffic conditions.
By 1:01 PM, a tow truck was requested to assist with the removal of the vehicles involved in the crash. The presence of the black SUV blocking lane #2 contributed to the traffic backup, causing motorists to experience delays. As of 1:52 PM, the estimated time for traffic to return to normal was approximately five minutes, but drivers were advised to remain cautious and expect lingering congestion.
