A serious traffic collision involving three vehicles sent two people to the hospital, including one with critical injuries, on Sunday, May 4th. The incident occurred along westbound Mojave Drive between Cobalt Road and Diamond Road, prompting a swift emergency response and an ongoing investigation by local authorities.
According to the Victorville Police Department, the crash was reported shortly before emergency crews arrived at the scene. Preliminary findings indicate that a blue Ford Mustang traveling eastbound veered across the center median into oncoming traffic and collided head-on with a white Honda Civic traveling westbound. A white Mercedes-Benz SUV, also traveling westbound, became involved in the aftermath of the initial impact.
The female driver of the Honda Civic suffered the most severe injuries. She was trapped inside her vehicle following the collision and had to be extricated by emergency personnel using specialized rescue equipment. Once freed, she was immediately transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital, where she remains in critical condition.
The driver of the Ford Mustang, who sustained minor injuries, was also taken to a local hospital for treatment. The condition of the Mercedes-Benz driver or any possible passengers was not disclosed, and no additional injuries have been reported at this time.
The crash led to significant traffic disruption in the area as emergency crews worked to assist the injured, clear debris, and begin their investigation. Authorities have not yet released any information regarding the cause of the Mustang’s lane departure, and it is currently unknown whether speed, impairment, or distraction played a role in the incident.
The Victorville Police Department continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash. Witnesses or individuals with dashcam footage are encouraged to contact the department to assist in the investigation.
