A 74-year-old man driving a Mazda pickup westbound on South Avenue failed to stop at a stop sign and collided with a northbound Kenworth truck and trailer on Cedar Avenue, authorities said.
The impact sent both vehicles into a residential fence at the northeast corner of the intersection.
The Mazda driver was pronounced dead at the scene, while the 61-year-old Kenworth driver sustained moderate injuries and was taken to Community Regional Medical Center.
CHP officials said drugs and alcohol do not appear to have played a role in the crash.

The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
