What is the result of two plates of the the San Andreas fault in California?
The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault boundary where two tectonic plates, the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate, meet. These plates are moving horizontally past each other. As a result, the motion along the fault can cause earthquakes due to the stress and friction as the plates grind against each other.
What two plates dose San Andreas fault separate?
The San Andreas Fault separates the Pacific Plate to the west from the North American Plate to the east. The movement between these two plates is responsible for the majority of seismic activity in California.

What two plates are colliding each other in California?
The San Andreas fault forms a continuous narrow break in the Earth's crust that extends from northern California southward to Cajon Pass near San Bernardino. Southeastward from Cajon Pass several branching faults, including the San Jacinto and Banning faults, share the movement of the crustal plates. In this stretch of the fault zone, the name "San Andreas" generally is applied to the northeastern most branch.
