The front passenger of a Honda Civic died Saturday and the driver and rear passenger suffered major injuries when the driver lost control, went off a road in Bonsall and crashed into a tree.
The crash occurred at 5:20 p.m. on Olive Hill Road south of Morro Hills Road, said CHP Officer Chris Parent.
Three 18-to-20-year-old men were in the 1996 Honda Civic southbound “at a high rate of speed and entering a left curve in the roadway,” Parent said. “The driver failed to negotiate the curve and veered to the right off the roadway and collided with a tree.”
The front passenger “succumbed to his injuries,” the officer said. The driver and rear passenger were flown to Palomar Regional Medical Center with major injuries.
“The collision is still under investigation and DUI is suspected,” Parent said.
