Two individuals sustained injuries in a traffic accident that occurred in Sonora, California, during the nine o’clock hour this morning. The incident took place on Mono Way near the intersection with Haystack Road, prompting a response from the California Highway Patrol (CHP).
Preliminary reports indicate that an 86-year-old woman from Sonora was operating a Chevrolet sedan when her vehicle veered off the roadway. The car struck an embankment and subsequently collided with a guardrail. The crash caused temporary blockage of Mono Way in both directions, impacting local traffic. However, traffic conditions have since returned to normal as crews worked swiftly to clear the area.
Emergency services transported the woman and her 66-year-old male passenger to Adventist Health Sonora for medical evaluation and treatment. Fortunately, both individuals are reported to have sustained minor injuries.
Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the accident. Local residents and travelers are reminded to remain cautious on the roads and adhere to traffic regulations to prevent such incidents.
