A single-vehicle rollover incident occurred today at the intersection of US Highway 101 North and the CCG off-ramp in Morgan Hill, CA. The accident was reported around 4:30 PM when the driver fell asleep, causing the vehicle to roll over and come to rest on its roof approximately 30 feet off the roadway.
Emergency services responded quickly to the scene and confirmed that no other vehicles were involved in the incident. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. The driver, the sole occupant of the vehicle, was unharmed. Authorities noted that the vehicle was difficult to see from the roadway.
A tow truck was called to remove the overturned vehicle, which resulted in temporary lane closures on the northbound side of US Highway 101, particularly affecting the CCG off-ramp. Traffic flow was restored shortly after the vehicle was towed away.
This incident highlights the importance of staying alert while driving, especially during long trips. The California Highway Patrol urges all drivers to take necessary breaks to prevent fatigue-related accidents.
