A fatal vehicle
accident occurred on Friday around 12:37 in the morning in Santa Ana involving
a single vehicle. The crash took place when a BMW ran into the median
of a road and hit two trees. Tragically, the passenger of the vehicle
passed away. The driver had severe injuries and was arrested because it
is thought that he was under the influence. The accident is being investigated
further to determine if the driver was under the influence and racing.
Allegedly, the driver may have been racing a Dodge Charger at the time
of the accident before losing control of their vehicle.
In the United States, someone passes away from a drunk driving accident
about every 51 minutes, and a victim suffers an injury in a drunk driving
accident about every two minutes. Additionally, speeding is a factor in
one-third of fatal vehicle accidents.
