⚠️ Innocent Driver’s Life Cut Short in Crash Caused by Suspected DUI Driver ⚠️

On Sunday, October 4, 2026, just after 6:00 p.m., CHP Madera officers responded to a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Road 28 ½ and Avenue 15.

Officers learned the following:

A 32-yeard old man from Madera, CA was driving a 2008 Mercedez-Benz CLS550, northbound on Road 28 ½, approaching the intersection at Avenue 15. At the same time, a 25-year-old man from Madera, CA was driving a 2013 Nissan Altima, westbound on Avenue 15, approaching the intersection at Road 28 ½. At this intersection, traffic on Road 28 ½ is controlled by posted stop signs. Traffic on Avenue 15 is not controlled and has the right-of-way.
 
The driver of the Mercedes-Benz failed to stop for the posted stop sign and entered the intersection directly into the path of the Nissan, at which point a crash occurred. As a result of this impact, the Mercedes-Benz overturned and crashed with a brick wall located on the northwest corner of the intersection. The driver of the Nissan was not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle. Despite life saving measures, the driver of the Nissan succumbed to his injuries at the scene. A 17- year-old passenger in the Nissan was taken to Valley Children’s Hospital with minor injuries. The driver of the Mercedes-Benz suffered minor injuries.
 
Alcohol is believed to have been a factor in this crash. The driver of the Mercedes-Benz was arrested on scene and was booked at Madera County Jail under various charges.

The California Highway patrol would like to remind the motoring public that driving under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or any substance that affects your ability to drive can put every person on the road at risk. If you’re impaired, don’t drive. Designate a sober driver, call a rideshare, or find another safe way home. Don’t let one impaired decision become a lifetime of regret. Drive sober. Make it home.

🚨YOUR CARGO SHOULD NEVER PUT YOU OR YOUR PASSENGERS AT RISK🚨

The driver of this vehicle was stopped for failing to stop at a stop sign. When the officer contacted him, he was met with this surprise. The danger in this photo is clear. During sudden braking or a crash, unsecured cargo can shift forward and cause serious injuries.

✅ Secure cargo with appropriate restraints and anchor points.
✅ Keep sharp objects away from occupants.
✅ Keep windows and mirrors clear for visibility.
✅ Use a suitable truck or trailer when materials cannot be safely transported inside your vehicle.
