I am curious where the information comes from. I dont see anything that stated how the person driving the white dodge (Juan) was trying to pass another vehicle while driving into on coming traffic intentionally. BOTH Juan and Suzanne’s vehicles where BOTH on fire immeiatley after impact ! I feel for all that were involved and am very sorry for Suzanne becuase her life will never be the same because of the poor choice that he has made. !!!!!

Nothing in the article claims anyone was trying to pass anyone.  Are you saying that he WAS passing a car when it happened?

Yes, the white dodge truck was trying to pass another vehicle. I was the vehicle he was trying to pass. I was first on the sceen to assist.Both vehicles were on fire right after impact and Suzanne was able to get out of her vehicle from the passenger side. Juan was pinned in his vehicle and he was trapped much longer and the threat of the fire from his vehicle was much more concerning since he was pinned much longer.I was able to get his door open but I had no clue as how to get him out. Others were able to assist and free him from the truck. THANK YOU TO ALL THAT WERE THERE AND ASSISTED.
I was just curious how the paper got the information since it was not all that accurate.

They don’t care about accuracy at this newspaper as long as they can give the article a leftist slant.
