Head-On Accident on Highway 160 in Sherman Island Leaves 1 Driver Dead and 3 Children Injured
SHERMAN ISLAND, CA (May 30, 2022) – A man died and three children were injured after a head-on accident on Highway 160, late Sunday evening.
The accident happened around 10:20 p.m. on May 29 near the Antioch Bridge and West Brannan Island Road. According to the California Highway Patrol, the 38-year-old San Ramon man was driving a Mazda southbound on the highway at a high rate of speed.
He then crossed over the double-yellow lines and collided head-on into a northbound Audi, driven by a 70-year-old Rio Vista woman. The impact caused the Mazda to overturn on its roof.
The driver of the Mazda died at the scene. Three juveniles in the Mazda, a 15-year-old girl and two young boys, ages 6 and 4, suffered serious injuries.
A helicopter took one of the boys to Children’s Hospital in Oakland and the other to the UC Davis Medical Center.
