Multiple Semi Truck Collision in Merced County near Turlock

August 18, 2014- A multi-vehicle crash injures one man, after his SUV collides with two big rigs, in Merced County.  The semi truck accident occurred east of Turlock, on Monday, at approximately 10:29 AM.

The driver of a Sport Utility Vehicle was headed west on East Avenue, when his SUV drifted into the oncoming lane.  The vehicle clipped one tractor-trailer, and then spun out.  The SUV then smashed into another big rig, driven by Jeff Geigle, near the Pepper Street intersection.
