December 3, 2015 (Lakeside) – A 22-year-old Ramona man was airlifted to Sharp Memorial Hospital with major life threatening injuries after a two-vehicle collision today at 2:40 p.m.
The Ramona man turned onto northbound State Route 67 from Posthill Road but failed to see a 3-axle dump truck towing a trailer approaching from the left. The Suzuki pulled out in front of the truck driver, who had little or no time to react, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Kevin Pearlstein.
The fight front of the truck struck the left front of the Suzuki in the intersection, causing the truck to overturn onto its right side. The truck driver was not injured. Detours were put in place for an hour during the investigation and cleanup.
The collision remains under investigation, however alcohol or drugs were not factors, Officer Pearlstein said.
