Another nasty accident. I sure hope all the people involved will be ok. Another good reason for you to consider joining an Air Medical Rescue company. A big thank you to the Hopland Fire Department and Chief Mitch Franklin.
Odd that the Jeep does not seem to have a large amount of damage at all. I don’t see any sign of deployed airbags.
The 1st pic shows the white Jeep pretty seriously smashed…
I do hope everyone recovers soon.
Any updates? It was a nasty scene…
