El Dorado County, California

On December 12, 2019, the Placerville office of the California Highway Patrol responded to what appeared to be a single vehicle rollover accident on westbound Highway 50 near the Ponderosa Road exit.  After interviewing eye witnesses the investigating officers quickly learned that the accident was caused by a white Toyota Sequoia that was driving recklessly just prior to passing the victim at a high rate of speed from the right lane and then cutting the victim off.  The victim quickly applied his breaks and swerved trying avoid colliding with the Sequoia but in the process lost control of his vehicle and veered off the highway onto the shoulder where his truck overturned before coming to rest.
