One person was killed, and another was injured following a two-vehicle crash near Orland on Monday morning, June 24, 2024.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the collision happened at about 8:00 a.m. on County Road 24 and County Road M.
Authorities stated that a 46-year-old woman was driving a 2004 Honda Accord east on County Road 24 at unknown speed, heading to a stop sign for the intersection with County Road M. Meanwhile, a 27-year-old woman in a 2016 Jeep Rubicon was traveling southbound and approaching County Road 24, which does not have any stop signs.
Investigation showed that the Honda traveled through the intersection with a stop sign while the Jeep approached the intersection going southbound. As a result, the front end of the Jeep crashed with the side of the Honda, causing the Jeep to spin counterclockwise. The Honda was pushed in a southeasterly direction after spinning around due to the impact of the crash.
Police said that the driver of the Honda was transported to Glenn Medical Center, where she died. The driver of the Jeep sustained minor injuries and was taken to Enloe Hospital for treatment.
No additional details were released, and the authorities are gathering all the necessary information to determine the circumstances leading up to the crash.
Police work is underway.
Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?
Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:
- Check yourself for any injuries.
- Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
- Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
- Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
- Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
- Seek immediate medical attention.
- Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.
What A Lawyer Can Do For You
Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
