On Sunday afternoon, a traffic collision with injuries occurred on CA-17 Northbound, just north of Jarvis Rd in Scotts Valley, CA (December 7, 2025), causing disruption to travel. The accident was reported at approximately 4:25 p.m. This resulted in obstructed lanes and major traffic delays in the vicinity. Emergency responders from Santa Cruz County, along with the California Highway Patrol and medical staff, came to the location to help those hurt in the accident. Authorities have verified that there was at least one injury, but the amount of people affected and the severity of the injuries remain undisclosed. The collision led to temporary lane closures, which prompted officials to issue traffic alerts and advise drivers to anticipate congestion. CA-17 is a busy road linking Santa Cruz and San Jose, and accidents in this area frequently lead to prolonged delays because of few detour choices through the Santa Cruz Mountains. Teams worked to secure the scene, provide medical assistance, and start clearing the road. No additional information has been provided about the reason for the crash or if all lanes are now open. We extend our thoughts to those hurt in the incident and hope for their quick and complete recovery.
