Big Rig Driver Injured in 15 Freeway Collision
Hesperia, CA (March 12, 2022) – On Friday, a semi-truck driver sustained injuries in a racing crash on 15 Freeway.
It was about 8:30 a.m. when the incident took place between Joshua Street and Main Street.
Reports say the incident involved a silver Infinity and an Athens Services semi-truck.
According to the investigators, the silver Infinity and a blue 4-door Subura were racing at speeds between 110-120 mph before the crash took place.
Due to the impact, the Infinity was pushed into an embankment while the big rig went through the perimeter fence and blocked both directions of Mariposa Road.
The Infiniti driver did not sustain injuries from the incident while the big rig driver was rushed to a local hospital with minor injuries.
Reports say 10-15 gallons of motor oil and transmission fluid were spilled in the dirt during the crash.
Meanwhile, the authorities are investigating this collision.
Furthermore, it is best to avoid assumptions. Do not think that just because you follow the traffic rules and drive safely, others will do the same. Watch for erratic behavior or poor driving habits by drivers around you and always be ready to avoid an incident.
