Victorville,CA : Woman dies in late-night Hwy 395 crash on December, Thursday 28th 2017
A woman was killed in a head-on crash that left several others injured on Highway 395 late Thursday night.
Reported at 11:23 p.m., the crash involved three vehicles and occurred on Highway 395 near mile post marker 37.00, about ten miles south of Kramer Junction, California Highway Patrol officials said.
The crash occurred as a 21-year-old La Mesa woman was headed south on Highway 395 in a 2005 Toyota Corolla, while a 28-year-old man from Chino was headed the opposite direction in a 2017 Toyota Sienna.
The woman allowed the Corolla to drift across the solid yellow line and into the opposite traffic lane, directly into the path of the Sienna, officials said.
As the vehicles collided head on, a 31-year-old Inyokern woman in a 2013 Toyota Prius headed north on Highway 395 collided with the left side of the Corolla.
“As a result of this collision, the driver of the Toyota Corolla received fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene by San Bernardino County Fire Department personnel,” CHP officials said.
The name of the woman is being withheld pending positive identification and notification of next of kin.
CHP officials said the remaining occupants in the other vehicles sustained “major to minor injuries” and were transported to local hospitals for treatment. Further updates on their condition weren’t available Friday.
Officials said alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor in this crash, which remains under investigation.
Anyone with information or who may have witnessed the crash is urged to contact CHP’s Victorville office at 760-241-1186.
