California Highway Patrol Madera officers responded to a solo vehicle roll-over crash on northbound SR-99, north of Avenue 9 on Friday at about 1 p.m.

A 62 year-old man from Fresno was driving a 2001 Toyota Tacoma, northbound SR-99, in the No. 1 lane.

The driver drifted to the left, ran off the road and struck the metal guardrail. The driver then overcorrected, veered into the right shoulder, and overturned on the railroad tracks.
