Fatal wreck on I-95 kills one and critically injures three

By LaBovick Law

A tragic auto accident on Interstate 95 in Boynton Beach involving special needs passenger kills one person and leaves three others in critical condition.  The fatal auto accident happened Wednesday involving an 18 year old from Lake Worth driver that swerved and hit a passenger van carrying special needs individuals. The driver of the passenger van remains in critical condition, and two passengers are being treated for severe injuries. The 18 year old driver of the car that exercised poor judgment sustained minor injuries.

The passenger van in the crash is owned by Gayle Transportation Inc. of Riviera Beach. The company also owns several group homes under the name Dios Ark. The van's driver, 49 years old was taken to Delray Medical Center and remains in intensive Care.

There are several factors to consider in this case.  What caused the accident?  Could it have been avoided?  Were the passengers in the van and drivers wearing seat belts? Was the 18 year old distracted while driving?  Was there a phantom vehicle involved that caused the accident?
