Fiery Virginia Beach car crash injures three, causes rollover


Posted on Mar 31, 2010

A crash in Virginia Beach involving two vehicles has left three people – including a child – injured.  Fortunately, all individuals involved in the accident were wearing their seatbelts, otherwise their injures could have been much worse.

 

The accident happened when a white car and an SUV crashed into each other.  The force of the impact caused the SUV to rollover several times, until it came to rest on its side.  The crash took place at the intersection of Old Force Road and Presidential Boulevard on Sunday evening.

 

A fire broke out after the vehicles collided, making rescue efforts more dangerous. All three individuals involved in the wreck were treated at the hospital and then released.

 

According to Virginia Beach police, the driver in the white car was at fault.  That driver failed to stop at a stop sign, and as a result was issued a summons for disregarding a stop sign.

 

It is unknown why the driver failed to stop at the stop sign, but distracted driving is a common reason why drivers fail to obey traffic signals or signs.  The driver could have been distracted by a cell phone, smart phone, GPS device, music player, or any of a myriad other distractions.  It is also possible that the driver dozed off behind the wheel.
