PALMDALE – Authorities have identified the driver who died Tuesday after his vehicle veered into the adjacent lane, resulting in a three vehicle collision in Palmdale.

He was 44-year-old Tricone Raymond Sanford of Lancaster, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office.

      I meant no disrespect. I just find it pretty amazing that the driver of the Fiesta came through it as well as they did.

      Sorry for your loss.

    Wow.

    If I’m in a Ford Fiesta that gets hit by a Suburban AND a hay truck and all I have are moderate injuries I am buying a lottery ticket immediately.
