Driver Killed After Car Plunges Hundreds of Feet Off Angeles Crest Highway A late-night crash on Angeles Crest Highway claimed the life of the driver after a vehicle carrying four people plunged hundreds of feet down an embankment at around 10:30 p.m last night. Three passengers suffered serious injuries and were rescued by emergency crews before being transported to area hospitals. Angeles Crest Highway is one of Southern California's most scenic mountain roads and is a popular destination for sightseeing, hiking, skiing in the winter, and weekend drives because of its breathtaking views just a short distance from Los Angeles. However, its winding curves, steep drop-offs, and changing road conditions can also make it one of the region's most dangerous roads.
