Stevenson Ranch, CA (May 25, 2019) – A single-vehicle accident involving several high school students occurred on May 23 around 12:30 p.m., injuring three.
California Highway Patrol responded to the scene of this injury accident. According to CHP officers, the crash occurred Thursday afternoon at Smoketree and Willowbrook lanes in a gated community near the teens’ school, West Ranch High.
The students are suspected of speeding when their car lost control and wrapped around a tree in Stevenson Ranch.
Emergency responders were called to the scene to render aid. Fire crews extricated the teen in the front passenger seat who suffered major injuries, with the other two exiting the vehicle by themselves. The car sustained severe damage. The group was only identified as three West Ranch High School seniors.
We send healing thoughts to the injured teen and his family. Our thoughts are with them all during this difficult time as we hope for a full recovery.
Speeding Contributes To Car Accidents
Speeding is a major factor in car accidents. Many drivers feel that speeding accidents are accidents that happen when a driver is moving at over 100 mph. While of course speeding at that rate can easily cause a dangerous accident, driving at just 5 mph over the speed limit, in certain locations, can cause just as much damage. An auto accident can happen in mere seconds.
Sometimes, drivers speed because they aren’t paying attention. Here are a few other factors:
- They are in a rush
- They are not paying attention to posted speed limits
- They believe the speed limit does not apply to them
- They don’t believe they will get caught
