ONTARIO, San Bernardino County, Calif., Nov. 13, 2026 — A driver was injured on Thursday afternoon, November 12, in a rear-end crash on westbound State Route 60 in Ontario, according to the California Highway Patrol. The collision was reported between Haven Avenue and Archibald Avenue.
A minivan with rear damage stopped in a center lane of westbound SR-60 near Haven Avenue, with debris scattered behind it. A witness who called in the crash reported that a gray minivan had been rear-ended, and that a driver remained inside the vehicle afterward, reportedly appearing unresponsive. Ontario Fire Department units responded as a precaution, and the driver was described as awake and moving before being released to family at the scene.
The circumstances leading up to the crash are still being sorted out. The responding caller told dispatchers that two gray sedans had reportedly been driving aggressively alongside each other just before the crash, raising the possibility of an exhibition-of-speed violation, and said it was unclear whether either car was involved in the collision itself. The log also noted a separate report that a silver Toyota and a blue sedan may have been involved in a hit-and-run before colliding with the minivan, though the CHP had not confirmed that account. A second vehicle, possibly an SUV, was also reported involved near Haven Avenue, but further details on that vehicle were not released.
Caltrans freeway service patrol crews moved the damaged minivan to the right shoulder, and a tow truck was requested for a gray Chrysler Town and Country involved in the crash. The lanes were reported cleared, with the incident closed by late Thursday afternoon.
We hope everyone who was hurt makes a full and speedy recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does following distance help prevent rear-end crashes?
Leaving enough space between vehicles gives drivers time to react if traffic ahead slows or stops suddenly, which is the most common cause of rear-end collisions.
Why does distraction play a role in these crashes?
A driver looking at a phone or otherwise not watching the road ahead may not notice slowing traffic in time to brake, which is a frequent factor in rear-end impacts.
What injuries commonly result from rear-end crashes?
Whiplash and other neck and back injuries are common, along with head injuries if an occupant is thrown forward or against the vehicle's interior.
What should I do after being rear-ended?
Move to a safe location if possible, check for injuries, call for medical help if needed, and notify law enforcement so a report can be filed.
