That day, police said a Honda Civic heading west on North Parallel Road “at a high rate of speed” veered into the oncoming lanes and crashed head-on with a Volkswagen Jetta.

A driver and passenger were in the Civic, while a driver, passenger and two small children were in the Jetta. All were taken to hospital.

The front-seat passengers of the Volkswagen suffered “severe life-altering injuries,” while the driver of the Honda was badly hurt as well.
