Marin County, CA – One person was injured in a rollover collision on Highway 101 near Novato in Marin County on Saturday afternoon, according to the California Highway Patrol.
At around 2:30 p.m. January 10, authorities received reports of a collision in the southbound lanes of the highway at Ignacio Boulevard.
According to the report, two vehicles were involved in the crash and one of them rolled over due to the impact of the collision.
One of the drivers complained of head pain. No other injuries were reported in the incident.
The California Highway Patrol responded to investigate the accident and at least three lanes of the highway were shut down. All lanes were reopened as of 3:15 p.m.
The circumstances under which the vehicles collided were yet to be established by the investigators. The California Highway Patrol continues to investigate the incident.
California continues to experience a high number of vehicle collisions each year. According to the California Highway Patrol’s Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were over 2,000 fatal crashes and nearly 300,000 total collisions reported statewide in 2024. Rear-end and multi-vehicle collisions on major freeways like SR-12 contribute significantly to injuries and hospitalizations.
Drivers are reminded to maintain safe following distances, reduce speeds during low-light conditions, and avoid distractions while driving. Early-morning commuters should stay alert on busy freeways and always wear seatbelts to reduce the risk of serious injuries in multi-vehicle collisions.
