In the early hours of Monday morning, a tragic series of events unfolded on northbound Interstate Highway 880 in San Jose, resulting in the death of a motorcyclist and causing significant traffic delays, as reported by the California Highway Patrol (CHP).
The initial incident occurred around 4:40 a.m. when a car driver lost control and collided with the central divider near The Alameda on I-880's northbound lanes. Following this, a motorcyclist crashed into the stationary car, sustaining injuries, according to CHP Officer Ross Lee.
As traffic began to accumulate due to the first accident, a second collision took place. This involved a Nissan sedan and another motorcyclist. The motorcyclist, unfortunately, collided with the rear of the Nissan and was fatally injured, Lee confirmed.
The sequence of these accidents not only led to a tragic loss but also caused a severe backup on the highway, affecting many commuters.
