A GMC SUV and a motor home collided along Highway 152 in the vicinity of San Luis Reservoir State Recreation Area at approximately 11:30 am. Only a few details were immediately available due to the ongoing investigation of the accident.

Recreational Vehicle Accidents
Many Americans enjoy taking rides on an open road in a recreational vehicle (RV) to enjoy their vacations or go on a driving tour. Recreational vehicles consist of toy haulers, camper vans, popup camper vans, hybrid trailers, and motor homes. RVs are more susceptible to accidents due to their sheer sizes, blind spots, poor maneuverability issues and braking distances. Motor home accidents are also caused by:
- Speeding
- Fatigued driving
- Miscalculated stopping distances
- Overloading
- Poorly balanced loads
- Rollover resulting from higher center of gravity
- Taking turns too fast
If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident with an RV, it is crucial to seek medical care as soon as possible. It is important to note all of your symptoms after an accident and report back to your main provider to receive the most effective treatment options. Some delayed symptoms after a car accident include headaches, back pain, emotional symptoms and pain in the shoulders and neck. These symptoms may be the result of an underlying condition such as a spinal injury, head or brain trauma, or herniated disc. For more details, contact an experienced Merced personal injury lawyer.
