California Highway Patrol (CHP) has closed SR-166 eastbound this morning due to a traffic collision.
Just before 9:00 a.m. CHP reported a two vehicle crash near Tepusquet Road.
The crash appears to involve a semi-truck and a Ford F150 truck. The semi is hauling vehicles with two cars on it. Although the way CHP is describing the incident it’s unclear if the Ford is hauling vehicles on a trailer and the semi-truck is hauling something different.
CHP states there is a 43-foot car hauler and a 70 foot crude oil tanker.
The crash caused the roadway to be impassible in both directions, but emergency responders were able to clear the westbound lane for traffic.
“All lanes of State Route 166 East are now open following a traffic incident this morning.” – Caltrans at 1:30 p.m.
