Ziff & Cohn

San Jose, CA (August 29, 2025) – On the evening of August 28, a two-vehicle crash occurred on South 10th Street in San Jose, leaving at least one person injured. Emergency services were called to the scene shortly after 9:40 p.m. in response to reports of a collision involving two vehicles in the area near the 95112 postal code.

Upon arrival, paramedics attended to a woman who sustained injuries in the crash. She was transported to a nearby medical facility for additional care. Authorities worked to secure the area and guide traffic away from the crash site while they conducted a preliminary investigation.

The accident led to minor delays along South 10th Street as officers worked to assess the scene and clear the roadway. While specific details regarding the sequence of events remain under investigation, local law enforcement continues to gather information from those involved and any witnesses who may have observed the incident.

As California Highway Patrol officers look into the cause of the crash, they have not yet released the identities of those involved. Investigators are also reviewing whether speed, distraction, or other roadway factors may have contributed to the collision.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in California

Car accidents in California are common and often result in serious injury. According to recent reports, California consistently ranks among the states with the highest number of traffic-related injuries and fatalities. Urban centers like San Jose contribute heavily to these statistics due to high traffic volumes.

These incidents highlight the importance of understanding certain factors that frequently lead to car crashes.

  • Distracted Driving: Cell phone use, eating, or adjusting controls while driving takes a driver’s focus off the road. Even a few seconds of distraction can result in a serious crash.
  • Speeding: Drivers exceeding speed limits reduce their reaction time and increase the severity of collisions. Excessive speed is a major factor in both fatal and non-fatal crashes.
  • Driving Under the Influence: Alcohol and drug impairment significantly affect a driver’s coordination and judgment. Despite strict laws, impaired driving remains a leading cause of roadway injuries in California.
  • Failing to Yield or Obey Traffic Signals: Ignoring signs or signals often leads to intersection accidents. These types of collisions are common and can cause serious harm.
  • Fatigued Driving: Exhausted drivers have reduced alertness and slower response times. Long hours behind the wheel or lack of rest greatly increase the risk of accidents.
