Los Angeles, CA (June 25, 2026) – A traffic collision involving at least one vehicle was reported early on Thursday morning on the eastbound Interstate 105 connector road to northbound Interstate 710 in Los Angeles.
According to dispatch records, the first reports were received at approximately 12:55 a.m. Initial callers reported a two-vehicle accident in the transition roadway. Subsequent updates indicated a silver SUV had struck the left wall of the connector and was blocking a lane. The vehicle was also reported to be facing the wrong direction, with debris scattered across the roadway.
Callers advised that a person inside the SUV had not exited the vehicle and may have been injured. Later updates from personnel at the freeway indicated the crash involved a single vehicle blocking lanes along the connector. A gray SUV and a silver hatchback were mentioned in dispatch communications, though the exact number of vehicles involved was unclear.
Traffic was temporarily stopped while emergency units worked to secure the roadway. A tow truck was requested because the disabled vehicle was located on a blind curve, posing a hazard to approaching motorists.
The cause of the collision remains under review as investigators continue gathering information. We extend our best wishes to the person who was reported injured in the roadway accident.
Why Freeway Connector Roads Can Be Hazardous for Drivers
Connector roads linking major freeways often present unique driving challenges. These ramps often feature sharp curves, changing traffic patterns, and limited sight distances, which can make it harder for motorists to react to hazards ahead.
A disabled vehicle on a curved connector can be especially dangerous because approaching drivers may have little time to slow down or change lanes safely. Debris in travel lanes can further increase the risk by forcing sudden maneuvers at freeway speeds.
Roadway design, lighting conditions, weather, vehicle speed, and driver awareness are among the factors commonly reviewed after crashes on freeway transitions. Even minor obstructions can pose significant risks in these areas because traffic often moves quickly while drivers navigate curves and merge. Maintaining clear lanes and promptly removing disabled vehicles helps reduce the likelihood of additional collisions.
