A driver of a John Deere tractor was killed after colliding with a Chevrolet Silverado on State Route 201 just past Road 48 in Tulare County on Thursday morning, October 9, 2025.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the tractor was towing a trailer eastbound around 7:15 a.m., traveling under the speed limit and partially within the eastbound lane due to its cargo.
The Chevrolet Silverado approached from behind, and despite evasive action, the front right side of the truck struck the back left side of the trailer. The impact pushed the trailer onto the tractor, fatally injuring the tractor’s driver.
The investigation is ongoing.
Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?
Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:
- Check yourself for any injuries.
- Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
- Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
- Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
- Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
- Seek immediate medical attention.
- Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.
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.
