MERCED, CA (April 12, 2019) – A woman was hospitalized in Thursday’s 2-car crash on Highway 59 at East Gerard Avenue.

Meanwhile, 45-year-old Davis escaped injury, said CHP, who also noted that neither alcohol nor drugs played a role in the collision.
 
Driving is a serious matter and should never be taken lightly. Pay attention to traffic nearby and only proceed when the roads are clear. Accidents occur when we’re distracted, careless, speeding or impaired. To minimize dangerous road collisions, avoid all at all cost.
