A traffic collision is under investigation in San Marcos after an incident on the evening of Sunday, April 21. The crash, a head-on collision, occurred near the intersection of South Santa Fe Avenue and North Rancho Santa Fe Road. Reports indicate that the accident happened just before 8:00 p.m., involving a blue Honda SUV traveling in the wrong direction on the eastbound lanes of South Santa Fe Road.

Eyewitnesses called emergency services after seeing the blue Honda SUV hit a red Honda SUV and a white Toyota car. Deputies and traffic investigators from the San Marcos Sheriff's Station responded quickly to provide assistance and begin their investigation.

The crash injured a family of three in the red Honda SUV. The 24-year-old father and 22-year-old mother were seriously injured and taken to Palomar Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. Their infant was secured in a car seat and was taken to Rady Children's Hospital for a medical check-up.

The driver of the white Toyota, a 46-year-old, was checked by paramedics at the scene and had no injuries. The driver of the blue Honda SUV, a 29-year-old male going the wrong way, sustained major injuries and was transported to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. His injuries were serious but not life-threatening. Authorities have not yet interviewed him, and alcohol is suspected as a possible factor in the crash.
