San Andreas Man Killed in Motorcycle Crash on Highway 49

Calaveras County, CA (August 13, 2026) — 35-year-old Travis Moulton of San Andreas died after his motorcycle collided with a Ford Bronco on State Route 49 in Calaveras County on Monday.

According to the California Highway Patrol, Travis Daniel Moulton was riding a Harley-Davidson westbound on Beverlynn Lane around 4:42 p.m. as he approached Highway 49. He entered the highway while the Bronco traveled northbound and then turned south, putting the motorcycle directly in the SUV’s path.

The vehicles collided broadside, ejecting Moulton and causing major injuries. CHP officers provided emergency medical care before an ambulance took him to a hospital, where he later died.

The Bronco driver, 51-year-old Dia Susan Siefker of Fiddletown, suffered minor injuries and also went to a hospital for treatment.

Investigators said they do not currently suspect drugs or alcohol played a role. The crash investigation remains ongoing.

Finding Support and Accountability After a Sudden Loss

Losing someone you love in an unexpected accident can turn your world upside down. Along with the deep emotional pain, families are often faced with practical and financial concerns—medical bills, funeral arrangements, and the sudden loss of emotional and financial support. These challenges can feel overwhelming when you’re already grieving.

During times like these, it’s important to know that help is available. A wrongful death claim may provide a path toward accountability and financial stability, helping families protect their future while honoring their loved one’s memory.

Through a wrongful death claim, families may be able to seek compensation for:

Funeral and burial expenses
Medical care related to the final injuries
Lost income and future financial support
Emotional pain and loss of companionship

This process isn’t just about financial recovery—it’s about accountability. When negligence, reckless behavior, or impaired driving contributes to a fatal accident, holding the responsible party accountable can help bring justice and reduce the risk of similar tragedies happening to others.

While nothing can ever replace the life that was lost, pursuing justice can offer families a sense of closure and peace. It’s one meaningful way to honor a loved one’s life and legacy.
