A multi-vehicle collision disrupted traffic on northbound Interstate 15 in Fallbrook, San Diego County, on Friday evening, February 6, 2026, after a driver experiencing a medical emergency struck several vehicles.

According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash occurred between Old Highway 395 and State Route 76 and involved a semi-truck, a sedan, and a pickup truck.

Authorities said the semi-truck and sedan were able to pull safely to the shoulder of the freeway. The pickup truck continued traveling approximately two miles north before leaving the roadway on the right-hand shoulder of the State Route 76 off-ramp and coming to rest in a drainage culvert.

The driver of the pickup truck was transported to a nearby hospital. The involved parties were reported to have suffered injuries of unknown severity.

Traffic on the northbound I-15 and the State Route 76 exit ramp was slowed as crews assessed the scene and worked to clear the roadway.

The CHP continues to investigate the collision.

What A Lawyer Can Do For You

Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
