Female Dead, Multiple Injured in Multi-Vehicle Crash on I-805 in San Diego

San Diego, CA, May 3, 2025– A tragic multi-vehicle crash on the southbound I-805 near Palm Avenue on the morning of May 3rd, 2025, resulted in one fatality and multiple serious injuries. The collision occurred at 8:53 a.m., and the aftermath left several vehicles severely damaged.

According to a female witness, who was also involved in the crash and later transported to a hospital, she saw the driver of a black car approaching from behind at speeds exceeding 100 mph. As she changed lanes to avoid him, the driver of the black car swerved into the right shoulder emergency lane and struck a disabled vehicle that had been stopped. After the impact, the black car crossed all lanes of traffic, hitting two other vehicles before finally coming to a stop on the center divider.

The crash left the white car on top of the blue vehicle, and both the male and female drivers from these vehicles managed to self-extricate. Meanwhile, the male driver of the black car was seen tending to a female who had fallen to the ground, though it’s unclear whether she was ejected from the vehicle. A second female passenger in the black car was trapped and had to be extricated.
