Los Angeles, CA (September 8, 2025) – A major traffic collision involving a Chevy and several other vehicles occurred late Saturday night near the intersection of Cheviot Vista and National Boulevard. The crash, reported around 11:30 p.m., prompted a Code 3 response with ambulance and traffic units dispatched to the scene.
Initial reports from LAPD dispatch indicated a “collision with injuries” involving at least six vehicles, including a Chevy, in a “6 versus 1” scenario—suggesting a significant chain-reaction or high-impact crash. Emergency crews arrived quickly to assess the scene, render aid, and begin transport procedures for those injured.
Several individuals sustained injuries, though the exact number and severity have not been officially released. Ambulances were observed transporting patients from the area, while police established a perimeter and worked to redirect traffic away from the intersection.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, with contributing factors such as speeding, visibility, or mechanical failure under review. Officers on scene reported an active incident still in progress as of the initial dispatch, and the scene remained under control into the early morning hours.
Our thoughts are with all those affected by this multi-vehicle collision. We hope for a complete and timely recovery for the injured.
Multi-Vehicle Collisions in Los Angeles
Major collisions involving several vehicles—like the recent crash near Cheviot Vista and National Blvd—are not uncommon in high-traffic areas of Los Angeles. When more than two vehicles are involved, the complexity of both the scene and the investigation increases significantly.
In this case, the apparent involvement of at least six vehicles and the dispatch of emergency medical units under a Code 3 protocol indicate that injuries were likely moderate to severe. Pile-up or chain-reaction crashes often occur at night when reduced visibility, higher speeds, and driver fatigue create dangerous conditions.
When multiple vehicles are impacted, victims may experience a range of injuries—from soft tissue trauma and broken bones to concussions and internal damage. These injuries can be exacerbated when secondary impacts occur during a multi-car event. Moreover, victims are often left to deal with the stress of delayed treatment, liability confusion, and costly damage assessments.
Legal and medical clarity is crucial in these situations. Victims are encouraged to document the crash scene thoroughly, seek immediate medical attention—even for seemingly minor symptoms—and consider speaking with professionals to help manage the complexities of recovery and insurance proceedings.
