Deadly Car Crash Blamed on Texting

|

Two young girls, 18 and 19 years old, died at the scene of a deadly car crash late last month. Police investigators now say that they believe the 19-year-old driver was texting at the time.

The girl’s car began to drift to the right on Old Lincoln Highway when she over-corrected and drove into the next lane. She collided head-on with an airport shuttle van.

Investigators say the driver made a phone call at 11:10 pm and sent a text message at 11:11 pm. The crash took place just before 11:15 that night. They found alcohol in the vehicle, but police say that toxicology reports found no traces in their systems.
