Anaheim, CA (July 14, 2026) – Two vehicles were involved in an early-morning collision on eastbound State Route 91 just east of Valley View Street in Anaheim on July 12. The vehicles, identified as a white Toyota RAV4 and a black Chevrolet Malibu, came to rest on the right-side embankment after the crash.
Both vehicles deployed their airbags, and the slow lane was temporarily blocked while emergency units worked on the roadway. One of the drivers reportedly left the vehicle and was last seen running against traffic on the Valley View on-ramp. Tow trucks were later requested to remove the damaged vehicles, and all lanes reopened by approximately 5:07 a.m. The extent of any injuries has not been confirmed, and the people involved have not been publicly identified.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, and additional details may be released as more information becomes available.
We hope everyone affected makes a full and speedy recovery.
What Is Typically Reviewed Following a Highway Collision?
After a highway collision, investigators typically examine several factors to determine what caused the crash. They usually review the positions of the vehicles, roadway conditions, weather, visibility, and any physical evidence left behind. Traffic cameras, dashboard camera footage, and witness statements may also help establish the sequence of events.
Vehicle damage, airbag deployment, and skid marks can provide additional clues about speed and driver actions before the vehicles came to rest. If a driver leaves before officers arrive, investigators may also work to identify that person and determine why they departed. As more evidence becomes available, a clearer picture of how the collision occurred can emerge, helping complete the official findings.
