Riverside, CA (November 10, 2024) – A serious collision occurred early Sunday morning on eastbound State Route 91 just east of 14th Street, involving a high-speed sports car and a sedan. Emergency responders and California Highway Patrol (CHP) units were dispatched to the scene around 12:46 a.m., with initial reports indicating two vehicles obstructing multiple lanes.
The incident began when a black sports car, reportedly traveling at high speeds and driving recklessly, struck the center divider before colliding with a black sedan. Both vehicles came to rest in lanes #2 and #3, causing significant traffic disruption. The Riverside Police Department confirmed that AMR paramedics were on site to provide medical care to those involved.
Fortunately, injuries were less severe than initially feared, though occupants of the vehicles received medical attention. A subsequent collision involving debris caused additional challenges for a driver not involved in the initial crash. This individual struck debris and pulled over but reported no injuries.
All lanes were briefly stopped while tow trucks worked to clear the damaged vehicles, and traffic resumed by 2:24 a.m. The collision remains under investigation as authorities work to determine the factors contributing to the high-speed crash.
Our thoughts are with all those affected by this incident, and we hope for their swift recovery.

Freeways like SR 91 are particularly vulnerable due to their high traffic volumes and multiple lanes.
These accidents often result in significant physical, emotional, and financial challenges for victims and their families. Securing timely legal, medical, and logistical support can help victims navigate the complexities of recovery and ensure their rights are protected.
