Northbound? Southbound? Which exit?
Article states that it happened on the southbound direction of 101. There are two exits for Garberville and it happened near the northernmost offramp (which would be the first one you approach). What’s so confusing about the info provided?
The stuff in brackets was added when I realized there was confusion. It’s been a busy morning and I just came back to tell Doggo that I had hopefully fixed the confusion. So…my error not his. [Edit–after consulting with Garberville Fire, I realized I was not quite right and updated again…sigh…sorry]
Immediately South of Garberville.
Near the southernmost on and off ramps. Over the bank 100 feet. (Just guessing, I guess)
Did you not get wind of the crash this morning on Whitethorn/briceland rd with a DOA?
CHP promised a press release. So far, haven’t got it.

Thanks Kym💖
oh pleeeze..You do a great service to the community. What I want to know is when do you sleep?
Well Mr. Smarty, that information was added AFTER my comment. 😎
Wow I was a bit confused as well. – no need to be rude. Concerned people for family n friends.
We went by yesterday after the fact and hoped no one was hurt! So did the man in that accident also die…hope not.
I just checked. It was a minor injury accident.
Doesn’t look injured since he’s walking up the embankment and not on a litter.
All I see walking are the first responders. Where is the patient?
Directly in front of the fireman coming up the embankment. He’s wearing a black jacket, black pants, sunglasses and looking over his left shoulder.
Thanks NoBody, I need to get some glasses.
🕯🌳Good eye.👍🏽
Score one more for the crashworthiness of the Honda Accord.
Oh good. .just saw your comment…but there were at least 2 ambulances there along with CHP and firetrucks.
What color is car?😩
Any information about the fatality car crash in Whitethorn early this morning?
No CHP report or updates?
