An Upland man was killed Wednesday... following a crash on the eastbound 210 Freeway east of Towne Avenue. Antonio Sanchez, 62, was pronounced dead at the scene around 2:45 a.m., according to a California Highway Patrol news release.
Sanchez was traveling east on the 210 freeway near Towne Avenue when he was involved in a minor crash, according to CHP officials... Sanchez's Smart Car was disabled and remained in the fast lane of the freeway without it's lights on, officials said.
Shortly after the initial crash, a motorist in a 1996 Toyota Camry rear-ended the Smart Car... The driver of the Camry was taken to Pomona Valley Community Hospital with minor to moderate injuries.
This was a Camry versus a Smart Car. You can only imagine, say, a Lincoln Navigator hitting one. Or a semi.
And these are the kinds of cars that the Obama EPA intends all of us to drive, at the trifling cost of only $6,700 per car.

ReplyDeleteWow what a comment.. Antonio was a co-worker and good friend. He was on his way home from work as a bus driver making sure everyone got home safe but that night he didnt. Has some respect for family before putting stupid comments.
