Fresno County, CA – A fatal single-vehicle collision early Thursday morning, March 27, 2025, on Manning Avenue near Highway 99 left one man dead, according to KSEE.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reports that the accident occurred around 12:30 AM when a driver traveling at high speed lost control, hitting two raised concrete curbs before becoming airborne and going off the roadway. The vehicle rolled down an embankment and landed on the highway below, where the driver was ejected and struck by a passing vehicle.
CHP reports that the driver died at the scene. The victim’s identity has not been officially released pending notification of next of kin.
The crash led to a temporary road closure, with traffic on northbound Highway 99 being diverted before reopening before 4 AM.
The investigation into the cause of the accident remains ongoing.
Single-Vehicle Collisions
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.
