This marks the second fatal accident in under a year on the same stretch, raising urgent questions about the cause — possibly drugs, alcohol, or a medical emergency. Authorities have not yet released her identity as they notify family. The site echoes a similar tragedy from May 2025, when a 64-year-old man died after his daughter, then 15 and driving with a permit, lost control. Both incidents underscore the road’s deadly risks and leave families grieving amid a haunting reminder of driving’s fragility.
