Two Killed in Wrong-Way Crash on Highway 85

A tragic head-on collision on Highway 85 in San Jose resulted in the deaths of two individuals traveling in a Tesla, while the driver of a pickup truck, who was reportedly driving the wrong way, sustained serious injuries and has been hospitalized. The crash occurred around 3:40 p.m. near the Highway 87 interchange, prompting the California Highway Patrol (CHP) to close all northbound lanes of the highway. Traffic has been redirected to Highway 87, but there is currently no estimate for when the lanes will reopen. The incident has raised concerns about wrong-way driving on highways, with CHP receiving multiple calls about the errant driver prior to the crash. This remains a developing story, and further updates are expected as more information becomes available.
