Family Escapes Before Vehicle Plunges into Aqueduct
Family Escapes Before Vehicle Plunges into Aqueduct

A family escaped their vehicle just before it veered into the California Aqueduct in Victorville Monday. The accident occurred around 3 p.m. on Memorial Day on Highway 395 south of Mesa Street.

A family of five was traveling south on Highway 395 in a Honda Pilot when traffic suddenly came to a stop. The driver hit the brakes and veered right to avoid hitting the car in front of him. Then the Pilot swerved onto the dirt shoulder.

The vehicle then crashed through the barbed wire fence surrounding the aqueduct. Fortunately, the driver was able to slow the vehicle down, and first responders helped get everyone out before the SUV before it reached the water.

“We’re relieved everyone in the vehicle made it out safely. This crash could have been much worse,” said Attorney Walter Clark, founder of Walter Clark Legal Group.
