18-year-old Ladera Ranch woman killed on toll road
CHP says Nicole Catsouras was trying to pass another car on right at more than 100 mph.

By KIMBERLY EDDS
The Orange County Register

LAKE FOREST– Nicole Catsouras, 18, of Ladera Ranch was killed Tuesday afternoon when her black Porsche 911 Carrera clipped a Honda she was trying to pass on the right at more than 100 mph on the Eastern (241) Toll Road, the California Highway Patrol said.

Catsouras was driving southbound near Alton Parkway when she suddenly switched lanes and lost control of the Porsche, CHP officials said, and then cut across the center median, careened across several lanes of traffic and crashed into a tollbooth.

The 20-year-old driver of the Honda was taken to a local hospital and treated for minor injuries.

The cause of the accident is under investigation.

That sucks, we all make inexperienced decisions at a young age...some still do at over 40, which sometimes can result in consequences like this. I feel for the family whose lives and holidays have just been ruined from the loss of their loved one.

Unlike Porsches that are built for speed, not for crashing.
