YUBA, CA (April 8, 2021) – Monday morning, 41-year-old Dung Trung Huynh survived a fatal wrong-way crash that killed two motorists on Highway 70.

Authorities received reports about a collision around 6:15 a.m., March 29, near Chandler Road.

According to reports, A Ford F250 traveling southbound on Highway 70, south of Lower Honcut Road, was allegedly swerving between lanes and driving at a high speed. Minutes later, the F250 crashed with a northbound Ford Explorer.
