Woman Hospitalized After Crashing Into Motor Grader in Phelan

PHELAN, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A woman was hospitalized Thursday morning after her vehicle crashed into a piece of heavy construction equipment in the community of Phelan. The incident occurred at about 10:47 a.m. on July 3, 2025, at the intersection of Goss Road and Riggins Road. Officials said the woman was driving eastbound on Goss Road when, for unknown reasons, she collided into the rear of a large Caterpillar motor grader—an approximately 40,000-pound machine used to level dirt roads in the rural desert community. The silver Honda Accord sustained major front-end damage. The impact crushed the hood and engine compartment, shattered the windshield, and ripped open the roof. Debris from the vehicle was scattered across the roadway. Despite the severe damage to the passenger side and roof area, CHP officials confirmed that the woman sustained only minor injuries. She was transported by San Bernardino County Fire personnel to a nearby hospital for treatment. CHP officials told VVNG the woman had just left Stater Bros. and was on her way home, which is located not far from where the collision occurred. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
