Sunday Morning Rollover Crash On O’Byrnes Ferry Road
Jamestown, CA – The CHP is attributing poor driving conditions as a possible cause of a rollover collision on the Tuolumne County side of the O’Brynes Ferry Bridge on Sunday morning.
CHP officers responded to a collision on Sunday (12/22/24) around 8:20 a.m., just north of Old O’Byrnes Ferry Road. CHP spokesperson Joshua McKernan reports that 81-year-old Billy Macha of Groveland was driving a 2002 GMC Yukon northbound when his vehicle started to slip on the wet pavement. McKernan relayed that Macha turned the steering wheel and the SUV rolled onto its side.
Luckily, neither Macha nor his passenger were injured in the wreck, which slowed traffic for more than an hour. McKernan added that conditions were poor as “it was raining at the time and the roadway was wet.”
