Oakland, CA โ A two-vehicle traffic collision on State Route 13 North (SR-13 N) caused major disruptions during the afternoon commute today. The incident occurred at approximately 2:56 PM, involving a white Honda HR-V, which was left undrivable, and another vehicle that was moved roughly 500 feet from the original crash site.
Emergency response teams and California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers arrived swiftly to manage the scene, implement lane closures, and reroute traffic. The repositioning of one vehicle complicated traffic operations, leading to substantial delays and congestion in the area.
Officers worked diligently to ensure the safety of motorists while clearing the vehicles and reopening the affected lanes.
โGiven the positioning of the vehicles, this was a dynamic scene,โ said a CHP spokesperson. โMotorists should remain patient while crews work to normalize traffic flow.โ
