Dallas police officer who died in Clinton motorcade failed to negotiate curve in road
DALLAS — The results of an investigation into the death of Dallas police officer Victor Lozada, who died on February 22 while escorting Sen. Hillary Clinton's motorcade to a rally, revealed that he did not handle a curve in the road properly.
From the investigator's report:
"[Lozada] was traveling south on Houston St. viaduct with emergency equipment on. The roadway at this point turns dramatically to the right. [He] was unable to negotiate the curve and collided with the east guardrail."
According to police, Lozada's failure to drive in a single lane of traffic was also a contributing factor.
