Three people sustained minor injuries after a four-vehicle pile-up on Highway 108 in Jamestown, Tuolumne County, on Tuesday afternoon, September 10, 2024.
The crash was reported around 2:20 p.m. near the 5th Avenue intersection and the Sonora Unit CHP office.
According to California Highway Patrol Spokesperson Officer Steve Machado, 76-year-old Ronald R. of La Grange was driving a 2018 Toyota 4Runner southbound on Highway 108 “at an unsafe speed for the current traffic conditions.” Ronald’s vehicle collided with the rear of a 2019 BMW sedan driven by 54-year-old Andrea S. of Chinese Camp.
The collision forced the sedan into the rear of a 2013 Mercedes sedan driven by 59-year-old Denay N. of Copperopolis. The Mercedes then rear-ended a 2008 Porsche SUV driven by 39-year-old Joseph C. of Newark.
Following the crash, the four vehicles blocked the southbound lane of the highway for several minutes while officers managed traffic.
Three people involved sustained minor injuries. Alcohol and drugs are not suspected to be factors in the incident.

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.
