San Francisco, CA (January 17, 2026) – An injury-involved traffic crash was reported Friday early afternoon on southbound US-101 at the I-80 East interchange in San Francisco. The incident took place at approximately 1:46 p.m. , which prompted a response from the California Highway Patrol and emergency medical services. Emergency responders arrived quickly at the scene and provided care to those injured in the crash. The incident blocked at least one lane, causing major traffic backups near the interchange—one of the city’s busiest freeway connectors. Multiple vehicles were involved in the crash, but officials have not yet reported the exact number of injuries or their severity. Paramedics stayed at the scene to evaluate and stabilize the victims, with some possibly taken to nearby hospitals for additional care. CHP officers are investigating the crash to identify its cause. Traffic congestion persisted into the early afternoon while crews cleared the scene and restored safe road conditions. Our thoughts are with the injured parties from this crash, and we wish them a full and swift recovery.
