Poor Weather Lead to Highway 65 Crash in Yuba, Two Hospitalized
YUBA, CA (March 24, 2024) — In a concerning turn of events, two individuals were rushed to the hospital following a collision on Highway 65, north of Wheatland. The incident, which took place around 6 p.m., prompted an immediate response from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) amidst challenging weather conditions.
The stretch of Highway 65 from Oakley Lane to Evergreen Drive was shut down to traffic until approximately 8 p.m. as emergency services attended to the scene. The individuals involved sustained moderate injuries, highlighting the potentially severe consequences of such accidents.
While the exact cause of the Yuba vehicle crash remains under investigation, the CHP noted that heavy hail was present at the time, suggesting that adverse weather conditions may have played a significant role. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of road travel, especially under inclement weather.
