A devastating crash in Miami Gardens on NW 37th Ave has left the community in shock. A 25-year-old male driver, reportedly under the influence, crashed into a family traveling to the movies to celebrate a birthday. The tragic accident resulted in the deaths of five individuals, including a grandmother and four children, while the mother and one child remain in critical condition.
The horrifying incident was captured on neighborhood security cameras, showing the driver speeding at 99MPH before the collision. The driver appeared before a judge today as the case continues to unfold.
This tragedy serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of impaired driving. As authorities push the message, "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over," it’s critical to dispel the myths that surround drinking and driving. Alcohol impairs judgment and reaction time, making speeding and driving under the influence even more deadly. The loss of this family is a devastating blow to the community.
