Napa County, CA – Major injuries were reported in a multi-vehicle collision on Highway 128 in the Lake Berryessa area of Napa County on Thursday morning, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The incident took place at around 5:30 a.m. January 29, in the 1900 block of Capell Valley Road, northwest of Moskowite Corner.
A preliminary investigation reveals that at least three vehicles were involved in the collision. There was no information on the circumstances that led up to the wreck.
Paramedics evaluated the people involved in the accident and determined that one of them had major injuries. It’s unclear how many patients were transported to hospital for treatment.

The California Highway Patrol is investigating to establish the cause of the collision.
California continues to see 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, such as Highway 128, contribute significantly to injuries and hospitalizations.
Drivers are reminded to maintain safe following distances, reduce speeds in 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.
