On October 27, 2025, in Salinas, CA, a car accident involving two vehicles took place on Monday morning, leading to at least one person being injured and a substantial emergency response, as reported by the California Highway Patrol. The incident occurred at approximately 8:19 a.m. at the crossroads of San Juan Grade Rd and Penzance St, and it involved a white Kia Optima and a white Honda sedan. CHP logs referred to the accident as a “bad TC” (traffic collision), with both vehicles leaking oil and producing smoke after the crash. Emergency crews from Monterey County quickly arrived at the scene, where a female passenger reportedly said she was feeling unwell. The severity of her injuries is currently unclear.
