Fatal Crash Involving Semi-Truck On Highway 395 in San Bernardino County

MOJAVE DESERT, CA (April 3, 2025)  – A fatal head-on collision involving a Walmart semi-truck and a car occurred early Thursday morning on Highway 395 in the Mojave Desert, authorities said.

The crash took place around 4:09 a.m. on April 3, just north of the Atolia Mining Camp in San Bernardino County, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The Walmart Truck Sustained Major Front-end Damage

CHP officials reported that a small black sedan came to a stop in the southbound lanes, while the semi-truck was left facing northbound in the same lanes. The semi-truck sustained major front-end damage, and both vehicles required towing from the scene.

Paramedics responded to the crash, but by 4:46 a.m., emergency personnel had requested the San Bernardino County Sheriff-Coroner due to at least one confirmed fatality.

Authorities are investigating the cause of the collision and working to determine fault.

No further details were immediately available.
