San Diego County, CA (December 27, 2023) – A 43-year-old male passenger sustained injuries following a fatal collision on Interstate 8 Tuesday.

CHP officers said a 52-year-old woman was driving a westbound 2008 red Ford Edge on the freeway with a male passenger.

Suddenly, the vehicle swerved right, cut across multiple lanes, and drove down the cliff.

Unfortunately, the driver succumbed to her injuries at the scene while the passenger was rushed to an area hospital with major injuries.
