    Monterey County, CA (February 5, 2024) A Saturday afternoon drive through Monterey County cost one man his life. In a sad turn of events, a 79-year-old man was driving his pickup when he was hit, head-on, by a vehicle driving the wrong way, authorities said. It happened just outside of Salinas on River Road.

    The Pacific Grove man was heading north on River Road in his Ford F-250 pickup truck at approximately 2:40 p.m. when a southbound Audi SUV suddenly crossed the double yellow lines. There was no time to react and the two vehicles collided, head-on, in the northbound lane of River Road. The impact of the crash forced the pickup truck to rollover and land on its roof about 20 feet from the road.
