Major Injury Head-on Crash on State Route Highway 1 Near Pacifica

PACIFICA, Calif. (Oct. 21, 2021) — A head-on crash on Highway 1 just south of Pacifica resulted in major injuries late Thursday morning after a garbage truck and SUV collided.

The collision happened about 11:30 a.m. on Oct. 21st between Linda Mar Boulevard and the Tom Lantos Tunnels, the California Highway Patrol said.

A white SUV reportedly crashed head-on into a garbage truck leading to the closure of both northbound and southbound lanes on Highway 1 just north of Devil’s Slide.

The CHP report stated at least one person suffered major injuries in the two-vehicle collision, but did not provide any further details at this time.  At least one ambulance responded to transport someone to a hospital.

The white SUV suffered major front-end damage and its airbags deployed due to the head-on crash. The garbage truck also suffered front-end damage, but to a lesser extent due to its larger size.

Investigators seek to determine what led up to the collision. There are no further details about the circumstances at this time.
