Two-Vehicle Crash on Interstate 580 Ends in 1 Dead
OAKLAND, CA (November 16, 2021) – A unnamed 19-year-old man died tragically after a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 580 on Saturday morning in Oakland.
The accident took place before 7:00 a.m. November 13, on westbound I-580 near 14th Street offramp.
CHP officers responded after a dispatch call of collision between a Toyota Scion and a Ford Escape. It turned out, for over speeding reasons, the Toyota rear-ended the Ford.
Due to the impact, the Toyota spun around toward the right shoulder and struck the over-crossing cement abutment.
