Rosamond, CA (March 13, 2024) – Troopers with the California Highway Patrol confirmed that one person lost their life as a result of a fatal truck accident that occurred on Monday morning in Rosamond.

According to official reports, at around 8:20 a.m., a head-on collision involving a 2017 Dodge Ram pickup truck and a 2013 Kenworth semi-truck occurred on Frontage Road. Authorities arrived at the scene and located the damaged vehicles in the area just south of Dawn Road.

The driver of the truck, who was identified as a 40-year-old man from Mojave, sustained severe injuries and was rushed to Antelope Valley Hospital, where he later passed away from his injuries. A 4-year-old girl in the vehicle was also injured and transported to the same hospital. At this time, the incident is being investigated.

We hope the young girl injured in this accident recovers quickly.

We offer our condolences to the family of the man killed in this accident.

Fatal Truck Accidents in California

Devastating motor vehicle accidents are reported in California every year. Unfortunately, these incidents take the lives of thousands of people annually. Accidents involving semi-trucks are more likely to result in severe injuries due to the massive size of these vehicles. Quite often, these incidents are avoidable, with many fatalities attributed to drivers speeding, impaired, or distracted behind the wheel. When drivers do not operate their vehicles safely, it can have deadly consequences for everyone.

Dealing with the aftermath of a motor vehicle accident, particularly one that claims the life of a loved one unexpectedly, is an overwhelming challenge. Families endure significant emotional and psychological trauma alongside the financial strain of funeral expenses and memorial arrangements.
