Chilling Moment a Reckless U-Turn Turned Deadly: What Really Happened Before the Crash?
Both Harjinder and his fellow passenger, another male in his 20s, did not sustain any injuries.
“The actions taken by the Defendant while operating a commercial tractor-trailer are both shocking and criminal,” Dave Kerner, executive director of Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, said in a statement.
“Three people lost their lives as a result of his recklessness, and countless friends and family members will experience the pain of their loss forever,” Dave added.

Investigators said Harjinder had a Commercial Driver’s License in California.
“When you hold a commercial license, you’re considered a professional driver, and you should know better,” Carlos Portela, a licensed truck driver with 25 years of experience and a manager at Centerport Inc., told WPTV.
“It’s senseless. There’s no reason,” an experienced truck driver said about the reckless U-turn

Stressing on how Harjinder should not have taken the U-turn to enter the pass, Carlos said, “Nobody is supposed to use it except the Florida Highway Patrol and other emergency vehicles.”
Grant Maxey, who has been driving commercial trucks for about three decades, was also stunned by Harjinder’s actions.
“It’s senseless. There’s no reason,” Grant told CBS12.

“He could’ve gone down to the next exit, went over the overpass or underpass whichever it is, got back on the road and go in the opposite direction,” he added.
