Slick roads may have been a contributing factor in a three-vehicle auto accident that claimed the lives of five people and sent six more to local hospitals for treatment of their injuries. The accident occurred recently on Interstate 5 near Newhall Pass just before midnight when a Mazda pickup truck spun out of control, struck the center divider and overturned. A Nissan Altima with six occupants was traveling behind the truck at an estimated 60 mph when the driver of the truck lost control.

The Altima’s driver attempted to avoid striking the truck and veered to the right, but was unable to avoid colliding with the overturned pickup. A Chevrolet Suburban behind the Nissan was traveling at 50 mph and was unable to avoid striking the Nissan. The four people riding in the Suburban were injured including the driver who was arrested on suspicion of operating a vehicle without a valid driver’s license. California Highway Patrol officers investigating the accident said that heavy rainfall that evening and slick roads could have prevented the drivers of the Nissan and Suburban from stopping in time to avoid the collisions.
