Solo Vehicle Collides with Pole, Blocking All Lanes on Highway 255 in California

AI SUMMARY: A solo vehicle collision occurred on Highway 255, resulting in the vehicle hitting a pole and causing it to fall into the roadway. The vehicle went off the road and all lanes were blocked as a result. The power company was notified and estimated a 30-minute arrival time to address the situation. Traffic began to back up, so southbound traffic was redirected at V Street. The pole was sheered at the base and a road closure was put in place at Jackson Ranch with northbound traffic being diverted. A tow truck arrived on the scene to clear the roadway, and eventually, the road was able to be reopened.
