Traffic remains impacted Monday afternoon after a big rig hauling electric vehicle batteries crashed off of Interstate 80 near the California-Nevada border earlier in the morning. 

The crash happened along westbound I-80, near Hirschdale Road.

Exactly what led up to the crash is unclear, but the big rig ended up off of shoulder with its trailer flipped over onto its side. No injuries were reported. 

California Highway Patrol says the big rig was hauling Tesla batteries, which officers say will complicate the clean-up effort.

As of early Monday afternoon, crews from Caltrans, local fire personnel, and Tesla safety are at the scene still working to unload the batteries. 

No estimated time of full clearing has been given by authorities. 

Drivers heading from the Nevada border to Truckee are being advised to expect significant delays with westbound I-80 down to just one lane. Mapping shows that the drive from Verdi to Truckee will take a little more than an hour as of 1 p.m.
