Sunday, April 15, 2018
FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- CHP officers say a Corcoran woman heading north on Highway 43 near Alpaugh drifted into oncoming traffic this morning and crashed into a man and a woman from Wasco.

The impact crushed the front of both cars and threw the southbound driver out of his car because he was not wearing a seatbelt.

"There appeared to be no braking and they collided head-on with full force at least at 55 mph each," said McConnell.

Investigators do not believe either driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
