Millbrae, CA—On the morning of Monday, March 3, 2025, a collision between a motorcycle and a big rig left a man with fatal injuries, according to NBC Bay Area.

The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office reports that the accident occurred around 6 a.m on El Camino Real near Park Boulevard. 

Emergency responders arrived to find the motorcyclist suffering from serious injuries. He was transported to Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center, where he later died. Authorities have not yet released his identity, pending notification of his family.

The driver of the big rig remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators. Officials have not released further details about the circumstances of the collision, and the cause remains under investigation.

The crash led to significant traffic disruptions as authorities closed northbound El Camino Real between Park Boulevard and Santa Inez Avenue for several hours. The roadway was reopened approximately four hours later.

Wrongful Death Claims & Comparative Liability

Determining fault in a collision can involve multiple factors, and under California’s Comparative Liability rule, several parties can share partial responsibility.  Should someone else be found even partly responsible for the death, the family may be able to file a Wrongful Death claim against the at-fault driver’s insurance. This can provide compensation to help cover medical bills, funeral expenses, and the loss of income to support the family of the deceased.
