RIO VISTA, Calif. — A 58-year-old man driving an RV died Monday morning after a crash on Highway 12 in Solano County. It happened around 8:15 a.m. on Highway 12 at Jackson Slough Road.
According to the River Delta Fire District, firefighters arrived at the scene to find an RV off the road with the driver still inside.
California Highway Patrol said the driver was from Pittsburg and for an unknown reason drove about 20 feet off the road and crashed into a ditch about three to four feet deep. Good Samaritans took the man out of the driver's seat and put him on the floor as emergency responders arrived, according to CHP. The fire district said the driver was unconscious and not breathing.
The man died from his injuries at the scene. CHP said it is unclear if he was wearing a seatbelt or not. Alcohol and drugs do not appear to be factors in the crash.
CHP says the cause of the accident is under investigation.
