Two people sustained serious injuries following a multi-vehicle crash on the Oxnard Plain on Saturday morning, February 1, 2025.
According to the California Highway Patrol and Ventura County Fire Department, the accident was reported shortly after 10:00 a.m. near Las Posas and Hueneme Roads. Multiple vehicles were involved in the collision.
Ventura County’s Copter 9 was dispatched, and roads were temporarily closed around 10:30 a.m. to allow for a medical helicopter landing. One critically injured patient was airlifted to Ventura County Medical Center, while a second seriously injured person was transported via ground ambulance to the same hospital.
Two other individuals sustained moderate or minor injuries and were taken by ambulance to Los Robles Regional Medical Center.
CHP logs indicated that one vehicle struck a pole, trapping an occupant inside. Another vehicle may have collided with it, but the exact sequence of events remains unclear. At least two vehicles reportedly sustained major front-end damage.
Authorities are continuing to investigate the circumstances of the crash.
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.

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.
