SAN DIEGO, Calif. (May 30, 2025) — A two-vehicle crash caused minor injuries and brief traffic delays late Thursday morning on northbound Interstate 805 Freeway near the 43rd Street off-ramp in National City, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The incident occurred around 11:20 a.m. on May 30th and involved a white Nissan coupe and a blue sedan pulling a trailer. CHP initially responded to reports of a disabled vehicle in the slow lane with its hazard lights activated.

Shortly after, the situation was updated to a traffic collision with minor injuries. Witnesses reported both vehicles were in the gore point area near the off-ramp, with one driver reportedly using a cell phone at the time of the incident.
