FRESNO, CA – The California Highway Patrol says a mail truck drove off Highway 41 on Thursday evening and rolled down the embankment into Fresno streets.

Around 8 p.m., the California Highway Patrol received a call about a two-vehicle accident with a mail truck falling down the embankment.

Another vehicle became disabled and partially blocked the slow lane, according to officers. While trying to serve out of the way, the mail truck driver lost control and crashed into the disabled vehicle, went through the guardrail, and rolled down the embankment. It landed on its side near Normal Avenue and Fresno Street. Alcohol and drugs were not involved in the incident, and no injuries were reported.

Overwhelming stress and negative consequences often result from a serious auto accident. Typically, victims are filled with questions and doubt and unsure of how to move forward. 

Fortunately, a large percentage of people who are hurt in motor vehicle accidents only end up with minor injuries. However, additional tens of thousands of victims will most likely require hospitalization, surgeries, and emergency medical treatment for their injuries.

Depending on the type of crash,  the odds of critical and life-threatening injuries may be higher for certain people. In more severe scenarios, car accident victims receive traumatic brain injuries, injuries to their spinal cord, broken and fractured bones, as well as additional injuries that leave them to deal with overwhelming physical pain and emotional trauma that can last for weeks, months, or even longer.
