Visalia, CA (August 16, 2025): Two people were hospitalized following a serious car accident at one of Visalia’s busiest intersections—Caldwell Avenue and Mooney Boulevard.
According to a Visalia Stringer Facebook post, the crash happened just after 9 p.m. when a Hyundai driver allegedly ran a red light, colliding with a Ford Mustang in the middle of the intersection. Both cars sustained heavy damage and came to rest in the roadway, blocking traffic for an extended time.
Emergency responders confirmed that two individuals suffered moderate injuries and were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment. Police advised drivers to avoid the intersection while investigators worked to clear the scene.
Intersection Accidents in Visalia and Tulare County
Busy intersections in Visalia and throughout Tulare County—including areas near Farmersville, Ivanhoe, and Selma—are well known for heavy traffic and frequent collisions. In fact, another rear-end collision on Mooney Boulevard in Visalia recently left a driver injured, showing just how common these crashes are in the Central Valley.
With drivers heading to local fairs, community parades, or school district events, roads often become congested, raising the risk of accidents. These dangers don’t just affect major streets like Mooney Boulevard—they also extend to small towns, rural roads, and neighborhoods where families are traveling to high school football games, 4H club activities, or church events.
Consequences of Intersection Accidents
Accidents at intersections like Caldwell and Mooney can leave victims facing more than just temporary setbacks. They may suffer:
- Medical bills for hospital stays, surgeries, or ongoing treatment
- Lost income from missed work or reduced earning ability
- Pain and suffering that impacts daily life
- Loss of enjoyment, making it harder to attend beloved community events such as the Dinuba Raisin Day festival or gatherings at local markets and community centers
These hardships ripple through families and communities. In fact, a two-car crash on Walnut Avenue in Visalia left multiple people dealing with similar struggles, underscoring how common and disruptive these accidents can be.
