Both vehicles were traveling towards the SR 41/SR 46 Intersection, known as the Cholame "Y". Pan entered the left turn lane to turn left in order to proceed northbound on SR 41 towards Fresno.

As a result of the collision, the right front passenger, of the Ford F-150, Casares, succumbed to his injuries at the scene. Torres, Valadez, Mr. Pan, Li Qng, Michelle Pan, and Andy Pan were transported to Twin Cities Hospital by San Luis Ambulance and treated for their injuries.
