Man survives crash on Highway 152, then killed trying to Flag down help

(Modesto Bee)You think your having a bad day ?
A man survived a rollover accident off a cliff and walked up to Highway 152 for help, but was hit by a car and killed, the California Highway Patrol reported.

The unidentified man was driving a Toyota Tundra east on Highway 152 near Los Banos about 3:15 a.m. Wednesday when he lost control of the car and it went off a cliff, rolling over and landing 200 feet below.

He made his way up to the highway, apparently to flag down help, but was hit by a Honda Accord driven by Fernando Martinez of Los Banos.

Investigators responding to the scene did not know about the first accident until the Tundra passenger, Aria Day Fletcher, 23, of Fresno, made her way out of the car and to the fatal scene.

She suffered major injuries and was taken to Doctors Medical Center in Modesto, the CHP said.
