Police say the skid marks left on the road are a good indicator the car was speeding.
Investigators are trying to determine why the car was going so fast before losing control, jumping the median, and hitting the traffic control box.
“How far the skid marks were. How far away the car was away from the intersection. They’ll map all that out,” said Scotty Leamon from the Coconut Creek Police and Fire Rescue Dept.
Once the investigation concludes, the findings will be sent to the State Attorney’s Office to determine if charges will be filed.
For Haig and others at the restaurant, they pray for those in the crash.
