Los Angeles: On Thursday, November 23, 2006, at about 1:55 P.M., 25-year-old Terrel Brown was killed in a traffic accident.
Brown was driving a 2006 black Suzuki motorcycle travelling southbound Central Avenue when he struck a 2005 black Ford Focus, license 5VUP421, travelling eastbound 118th Street. Terrel Brown was transported to a local hospital where he died from his injuries.
According to investigators, speed has been determined to be the primary collision factor. The driver of the Ford Focus was arrested for 23152(a) misdemeanor DUI.
Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact South Traffic Division at 323-290-6063. On weekends and during off-hours, call the 24-hour toll free number at 1-877-LAWFULL (1-877-529-3855).
Just curious....shouldn't the driver have been booked on a felony DUI due to just involvement of injuries alone, let alone a fatality?

According to the article, the deuce's actions were not the proximate cause of the death of the motorcyclist. He just happened to be driving the car that the speeding biker hit.
