Drunk Driver Hits Four Pedestrians In Imperial Beach
This past Saturday, a drunk driver caused a serious San Diego car accident when she hit four people, including a child, who were pedestrians crossing the street in in the neighborhood of Egger Highlands in San Diego, near Imperial Beach. The pedestrian accident happened at approximately 7 p.m. when the drunk driver, driving west on Coronado Avenue, attempted to avoid another car turning left from Thermal Avenue.

When the 20-year-old female drunk driver tried to miss the car, she instead hit three adults and one child standing on the corner. San Diego Police Department Sgt. Alan Hayward said that one of the adult pedestrians suffered serious injuries to her leg, while the other three suffered minor injuries.
The drunk driver was arrested and is likely to be charged with driving under the influence.
Hopefully, this experience will help the young driver re-think driving while under the influence of alcohol. Also, it would be great if others learn from her mistake so that in the future an irresponsible person will not suddenly hurt people who are simply waiting to cross the street. I
