Modesto, CA - One Killed in Semi-Truck Crash at W Grayson Rd and Shiloh Rd

Modesto, CA (June 21, 2025) – One person was killed late Saturday night in a crash involving a semi-truck and a passenger vehicle at West Grayson Road and Shiloh Road, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The collision occurred around 11:10 p.m. and involved a black Kia sedan and a tractor-trailer. The occupant of the Kia was found unconscious and trapped inside the vehicle. Despite lifesaving efforts by firefighters and paramedics, the individual was pronounced dead at the scene.

The victim’s identity has not been released, pending notification of family. No injuries were reported to the semi-truck driver.

Authorities closed portions of Grayson Road to investigate the cause of the crash.

We extend our deepest condolences to the victim’s family and loved ones.

Commercial Truck Collisions in California

Collisions involving 18-wheelers and freight trucks on highways like I-5, I-80, and the San Joaquin Valley routes often leave victims with life-altering injuries. The size and weight of commercial vehicles mean that even a single crash can result in spinal damage, brain trauma, or permanent disability.

These accidents are rarely simple. California and federal laws tightly regulate trucking operations, limiting driver hours, requiring vehicle inspections, and enforcing cargo rules. When companies or drivers break these rules, the risk of a crash rises sharply. Identifying these violations is key to proving fault.

Truck accidents often involve multiple liable parties, including the driver, the trucking company, maintenance providers, and cargo contractors. That complexity makes fast, focused legal action essential. Evidence such as black box data, inspection logs, and driver records can be easily lost or destroyed if not properly preserved. 

An experienced truck accident attorney can push back, preserve key evidence, and calculate the full value of your case. Under California law, you have two years to file a claim, but your case begins the moment the crash happens.
