A traffic collision involving one vehicle, a Tesla Cyber Truck, occurred today on the southbound lanes of US Highway 101 (US 101) at the interchange with State Route 85 (SR 85) in San Jose, CA. The incident was reported at approximately 7:50 AM during the busy morning commute, leading to significant traffic disruptions.
The Tesla Cyber Truck sustained enough damage to require a flatbed tow, making it undriveable. As a result, multiple lanes were closed, and traffic operations were diverted to the High-Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane to maintain flow. This diversion caused noticeable backups and delays for motorists traveling southbound on US 101.
Emergency response teams arrived quickly to manage the scene and control traffic. By 8:30 AM, a tow truck was on-site to assist with the removal of the damaged vehicle. While the situation was effectively managed, drivers were advised to expect delays as cleanup operations continued.
Motorists are encouraged to stay informed about real-time traffic updates and consider alternative routes to avoid congestion caused by this traffic collision on US 101 in San Jose.
