Corvette fatality
Read in the San Bernardino Sun this morning about a fatality involving a corvette. They did not say what year the car was but it was southbound I-15 in the Barstow area when it went off the road.
3 occupants were in the vette and one passenger was ejected and was killed, the driver was critical and the other passenger sustained injuries also.
Anybody else have any details? As i recall this is the second vette crash this year where there were more than 2 in the car. The first one was in the LA area somewhere and killed 3 or 4 in the vette?
