Pomona, CA – Car Crash Leaves One Dead

Pomona, CA (December 11, 2018) In the early morning of December 10th, a car crash occurred on the White Avenue off-ramp from the eastbound Interstate 10 Freeway. According to officials, an 18-year-old was speeding in a 2004 Ford Expedition as it exited the freeway. The teen was unable to negotiate a curve, veered onto the right shoulder, and then struck a light pole along with a chain-link fence. The Ford flipped over multiple times before it came to a stop. When the paramedics arrived at the scene, they found the teen fatally injured. The police are currently investigating the accident to determine if any other factors were involved.

We send our condolences to the teen’s family as we know how hard it is to lose a loved one, especially in a vehicle accident.

Recent studies show that over the course of a decade, speed was the cause of over 100,000 traffic fatalities. Speeding is considered an act of negligence because it puts other drivers at risk, especially if the driver that’s speeding is unable to brake in time.

The police are conducting a thorough evaluation to determine if other vehicles were involved in this collision. They’re also checking the condition of the teen’s vehicle to see if there were any defective auto parts or mechanical issues. They’re checking road conditions as well as weather conditions.
