Tudor, CA – On the morning of Tuesday, May 27, 2025, a pedestrian collision resulted in serious injuries to an elderly woman, according to the KCRA.
The California Highway Patrol reports that the incident occurred around 7:38 AM near a private property on Highway 113, just west of Hobbs Road.
According to investigators, an 81-year-old woman was struck by a vehicle as it backed out of a driveway. The vehicle was driven by the woman’s sister, who reportedly did not see her while reversing. The impact caused the pedestrian to suffer a significant head injury.
Emergency responders arrived promptly, and an air ambulance was requested to transport the injured woman. She was airlifted to a nearby hospital for further treatment. Her current condition has not been publicly released.

Personal Injury Claims
When a loved one may be at fault in a family member’s injury, there can be emotional challenges on top of the immediate physical health concerns experienced by the victim. An experienced personal injury attorney can help navigate these challenges as a neutral third party.
Most importantly, the purpose of a Personal Injury Claim is not necessarily to punish those liable but to make sure their insurance provider sufficiently compensates the victim for their medical costs and other damages.
