Two Injured in Wrong-Way Accident on 105 Freeway in Paramount
PARAMOUNT, CA — A wrong-way accident on the 105 Freeway near Garfield Avenue resulted in injuries to two individuals.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that the multi-vehicle collision occurred around 1:30 a.m. on Friday. Authorities were initially alerted to a driver traveling eastbound in the westbound lanes of the 105 Freeway.
Shortly afterward, another 911 call was received about a multi-car crash involving the wrong-way driver.
Paramedics arrived at the scene and transported two people to a local hospital. Their conditions remain unknown, and it is unclear if either patient was the wrong-way driver.
The CHP urges anyone with additional information about the crash to come forward.
Reckless driving can happen at any time and often involves speeding, tailgating, or driving on the wrong side of the road. Stay vigilant, especially late at night, as the risk of encountering a wrong-way driver increases. Always be prepared to react to unexpected hazards on the road.
