GLENDALE, Los Angeles County, Calif., Oct. 31, 2026 — A two-vehicle crash left at least one person injured early Saturday morning, October 31, on westbound State Route 134 near the northbound Interstate 5 connector in Glendale, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The crash was reported just after 3 a.m. near the transition from westbound SR-134 to northbound I-5. One vehicle, described as a white sedan, ended up blocking the middle lanes of the freeway facing sideways, while the other vehicle came to rest on the right shoulder. Airbags reportedly deployed in one of the vehicles, an indication of the crash's force, though the extent of any injuries has not been released.
The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to the scene and initially sent a crew as a precaution in case of fire, CHP dispatch records show. A tow truck was also requested to clear the vehicles from the roadway.
Left lanes of westbound SR-134 were blocked for a time as crews worked the scene, though it is not known how long the closure lasted. The CHP has not released information on what led up to the crash, and the incident remains under investigation.
We wish the injured a complete and speedy recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does speed make a crash more dangerous?
Yes. Higher speeds give drivers less time to react and increase the force involved in any impact, which usually means more serious injuries and more vehicle damage.
Why is distracted driving a particular risk on freeways?
At freeway speeds, even a few seconds of taking your eyes off the road can mean traveling a long distance without seeing a slowing vehicle or a lane change ahead, leaving little time to brake or steer clear.
What should someone do right after a car accident?
Drivers should move to a safe spot if possible, check for injuries, call 911, and exchange information with the other driver. Documenting the scene with photos can help later, and anyone with pain or symptoms should see a doctor even if injuries seem minor at first.
