SANTA CLARA — A teen driver was killed in a two-car collision on Lawrence Expressway on Saturday night, police said.
The crash was reported at 9:36 p.m. in the northbound lanes approaching Benton Street, according to the Santa Clara Police Department.
An initial investigation found that a 16-year-old Sunnyvale boy was driving a Honda Accord carrying two passengers, also teens, when he changed lanes to the left too closely to a Toyota Camry traveling in the other lane, causing the left-rear portion of the Honda to hit the front-right end of the Toyota.
The impact caused the Honda driver to lose control and hit a traffic signal pole, police said. When police officers arrived at the crash site, the driver was still inside the wreck while his two passengers had gotten out.
