The California Highway Patrol reports that the accident took place around 5:38 AM near Buttonwillow Drive and Sullivan Road.
Authorities responded to the crash and confirmed that at least one person had died at the scene. Emergency personnel secured the area while investigators worked to determine the cause of the collision. The coroner was called to the scene, and the roadway was later reopened.

Single-Vehicle Collisions and Comparative Negligence
In some cases, investigations may reveal that even in a single-vehicle accident, nearby drivers or unsafe road features share some responsibility.
California’s Comparative Negligence rule means that, even if those injured in accidents are found partially at fault, they may still be eligible to receive partial compensation for damages. A personal injury attorney can play a critical role in sorting through these details to help victims and their families get the compensation they deserve.
