$2 Million Payout for Missing Stop Sign Accident | How Negligence Can Lead to Serious Injury

CALL TO ACTION: Speak with Attorney James Johnson at 1-(800) 208-3538

LOCATION: State Route 94 and Home Avenue in San Diego, California

Imagine driving down a familiar road, coming to a stop, and suddenly — a truck crashes into you.

You’re severely injured, and you later discover the cause: a missing stop sign.

This is exactly what happened to Isabella Araceli Franco in San Diego — and today, we’re talking about how negligence can lead to life-altering consequences.

In January 2023, Isabella was driving her Jeep at the intersection of State Route 94 and Home Avenue. She came to a full stop, but as she was turning left, a truck on Federal Boulevard came speeding through the intersection — without stopping. Why? Because the stop sign was missing.

The city was aware that the stop sign was gone, and they even put up a temporary one — but it was too low and eventually tipped over.

In fact, the sign had been missing for months before the crash. This was not a simple oversight. It was negligence. And tragically, Isabella suffered severe injuries — a traumatic brain injury, multiple fractures, and multiple surgeries.

After filing a lawsuit, Isabella was awarded $2 million from the City of San Diego for their failure to replace the stop sign.

She also received an additional $480,000 from the truck driver’s insurance.

But the cost of this accident is far greater than just money. Isabella’s life has been changed forever.

Isabella’s case shows how something as simple as a missing stop sign can cause devastating injuries.

Cities and municipalities have a duty to maintain safe roadways, and when they fail to do so, the consequences can be catastrophic. If you or someone you know has been injured due to poor road maintenance or negligence, you deserve justice.

Stay safe on the roads, and remember — if you’ve been hurt due to negligence, we’re here to help.
