Authorities said one patient required extrication after being trapped inside the heavily damaged car. The Napa County Sheriff later confirmed that one person died in the crash. The second victim sustained moderate injuries.
Silverado Trail was closed from Yountville Cross Road to Oak Knoll Ave until around 1:22 p.m., according to authorities.
The fatal crash was the second deadly incident on that stretch of the Silverado Trail in just over a week. Two bicyclists riding on the Silverado Trail in Napa County died on October 18 after they were struck by lumber that had shifted on a truck's flatbed as the vehicle passed them along the roadway, authorities said.
They were identified as Christian Deaton, 52, and Michelle Deaton, 48, both from Portland.
The Monday collision is still under investigation.
