Bad accident but has nothing to do with Toyota. The car crossed the center line.

I'm sure the be investigating to make sure it was that . also why the driver loss control and cross the media of the freeway.

Probably inattentive driving, alcohol or drugs, like all of those who cross center lines (btw, teen driver).

Btw, as for Toyota.....not too long ago the government concluded that all of the "gas pedal" issues were really drivers error, just like with Audi in the mid '80s. All that BS cost Toyota millions.

even if it was due to the Toyota having the "issue"...the owner had PLENTY of time and warning to get it serviced, per the months and months of media attention and notices by Toyota. that would make it even more negligent for the driver to ignore it.

Toyota at fault??? Where did you even hear or read that in this story?

I heard TEENS driving.

Sad but looks like inexperienced driving to me. I don't think the toyota made them drive and ride without a seatbelt.
