Woman Dead After Crash on Stevens Creek Boulevard in San Jose

San Jose, CA (September 19, 2024) – On Thursday night, a woman died in an auto-pedestrian crash on Stevens Creek Boulevard.

The collision occurred shortly after 8 p.m. at the intersection of Stevens Creek Boulevard and Hanson Avenue, as reported by the San Jose Police Department on social media.

The pedestrian, identified only as a woman, was transported to a local hospital, where she later died from her injuries. 

The Santa Clara County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s Office will confirm her identity and notify her next of kin.

Police stated that the female driver was traveling eastbound on Stevens Creek Boulevard in a 2018 Honda Civic sedan when she hit the pedestrian.

The driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with the investigation. Authorities noted that the pedestrian was outside a marked crosswalk at the time of the accident. 

Although state law no longer enforces jaywalking, it permits crossing at any point on a roadway as long as it is done safely.
