Sheriff's blocked off Pacific Coast Highway in both directions at Las Flores Canyon Road after a car crashed into a traffic light and knocked it over, blocking the entire roadway.

Pacific Coast Highway is now open at Las Flores Canyon Road after a motorist collided with a power pole Thursday at approximately 6:30 p.m. Southern California Edison officials cut live electrical wires and Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies allowed traffic to resume. The crash was a single-car collision. The driver, a female, has been airlifted to a nearby hospital for “moderate trauma,” Thai said. 

SCE representative Jennifer Manfre said there were no reported power outages as a result of the crash.
