One Vehicle Hits House, One Lands in Creek After Head-On Collision North of Laytonville
Two vehicles collided head-on this evening north of Laytonville resulting in one vehicle veering into a creek adjacent to Highway 101 and the other hitting a house near the roadside.
Scanner traffic and the California Highway Patrol Traffic Incident Information Page indicate initial reports came in around 9:48 p.m.
The reporting party told dispatch a female occupant of a Hyundai Santa Fe appeared injured after the vehicle struck the porch of a roadside home that was reportedly unoccupied at the time of the collision.
As first responders are nearing the scene, more information was provided that indicated the other vehicle involved in the collision came to rest in a creek along the highway.
The Incident Commander described one vehicle’s occupants as “walking wounded”. The vehicle that hit the house has an occupant with a minor injury.

Hopefully not the home which is the old stagecoach stop near bell springs…..
It’s the white house at the base of bell springs road.
If so, that’s unfortunate. That’s a unique piece of the 101 experience.
Didn’t that place nearly get hit by an overturned semi about six months ago?
Yes
People always want to go 70mph in this area despite the many turns, falling rocks, and less than intelligent deer.
The deer may be the smartest participants..
You may have a point.
This article is full of inaccuracies. The owners were in fact home and no one ever ended up in the creek.
Thank you for the update. Sometimes the initial reports from the scene can be inaccurate.
Is the house okay?
The house belongs to my family. It is damaged but can be repaired.
Yikes! Asleep at the wheel or just going to fast?
Yes,
