A single-vehicle accident occurred late last night in Marina, California, when a car went over an embankment on State Route 1 North near Del Monte Avenue. The incident took place at approximately 10:24 PM on November 22, 2024. Fortunately, emergency responders confirmed that there were no injuries reported.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the vehicle was found off the roadway, suggesting that the driver may have lost control prior to the accident. Witnesses indicated that the vehicle crossed multiple lanes before going over the embankment.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, with units arriving shortly after the incident was reported. Upon arrival, responders noted that the vehicle was not visible from the roadway, complicating initial assessments. However, they quickly determined that no medical assistance was required.
Traffic was minimally impacted during the incident, with only one lane temporarily blocked as emergency crews worked to assess the situation. The California Highway Patrol managed to clear the scene without requiring a tow truck, indicating that the vehicle was likely not drivable due to its position off the road.
As of now, the final disposition of the vehicle remains unclear, but it is assumed that it will need to be retrieved from its location. The quick response from emergency services ensured that the situation was handled efficiently, allowing traffic to resume normal flow shortly after the incident.
Motorists in the area are reminded to exercise caution while driving, especially in challenging conditions that may lead to loss of vehicle control. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor road safety and urges drivers to remain vigilant at all times.
