Yuba County, CA (July 12, 2025) – A tragic head-on collision involving a Toyota Camry and an SUV resulted in one fatality and multiple injuries, including two children, Saturday afternoon on State Route 70 near Boyer Rd, according to the California Highway Patrol.
At around 3:15 p.m., CHP and emergency crews responded to the crash, which blocked both lanes of the highway. A five-year-old boy was critically injured, and an eight-year-old girl sustained minor injuries.
Authorities issued a SigAlert and temporarily shut down both directions of SR-70 while crews cleared the scene and redirected traffic. The alert was lifted around 6:00 p.m.
Officials have not released the names of those involved or the cause of the crash. The incident remains under investigation.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of the deceased and hope for a full recovery for all who were injured in this incident.
Car Accidents in California
Car crashes occur daily across California on major corridors, including Highway 99, Interstate 5, and busy urban roads such as Florin Road and Laurel Canyon Boulevard. These areas experience frequent collisions due to speeding, sudden lane changes, and driver distraction. Common accident types include rear-end impacts, intersection crashes, and left-turn collisions. These often lead to injuries such as fractures, head trauma, or back strain, many requiring hospitalization and time away from work. Accidents near schools, business districts, and freeway on-ramps can also affect pedestrians or cyclists, making emergency response more complex. Even minor crashes may result in long-term recovery and vehicle damage. That’s why getting help from an experienced California car accident lawyer is essential
