Camp Pedelton (April 11, 2023) – A man lost his life in a semi-truck accident on the 5 Freeway in the Camp Pendleton area on April 11. The fatal crash occurred just south of the Aliso Creek Rest Area at approximately 11:57 p.m. that night.

At this time, it is unknown whether anyone else was injured in the accident. Both the Camp Pendleton Fire Department and the Camp Pendleton Provost Marshall’s Office responded to the scene.

The CHP is continuing to investigate the cause of the crash, but they do not suspect that alcohol or drugs played a role.

Accidents involving semi-trucks and other large commercial vehicles can be especially dangerous due to their size and weight. When a passenger vehicle collides with a large truck, the results can be catastrophic. It is important for all drivers to be cautious and aware when sharing the road with these types of vehicles.
