Several Vehicle Crash on Highway 101 Near Gaviota Tunnel

 
Gaviota, CA (October 23, 2020) – On Thursday, the traffic authorities closed a portion of southbound of the highway due to a multiple-vehicle crash on Highway 101 near Gaviota Tunnel.
 
The crash incidents began shortly before 6 a.m. which includes collisions and spin-outs into guardrails. Also, with cars blocking all roadway lanes.
 
Immediately, emergency responders arrived at the scene as of 7 AM. Multiple tow trucks were also called at the scene, according to Shivers and the CHP.
 
Further, the authorities issued a SigAlert for the closure around 6:50 AM. Caltrans spokesman Jim Shivers said both lanes were made accessible as of 8:50 a.m.
 
Meanwhile, northbound Highway 101 lanes were kept open during the closure. The southbound drivers were directed to use Highway 154 and Highway 246 as detours.
 
Further, the National Weather Service overcast weather in the area with patchy drizzle.
 
Practice safe driving habits on the road at all times… even when it is empty, even when there is no police officer around to make sure you make a full and complete stop.
 
Aim high in steering, i.e. don’t make your steering adjustments based on what is directly in front of you, but rather what is down the road. If the road is winding to the right, for example, look as far into the turn as possible. This will improve your safety and make your turns smoother.


Dealing with Road Accidents
