[04-09-2025] Suspected DUI Driver Crashes Into Big Rig and Barrier on 10 Freeway in Baldwin ParkA suspected DUI driver crashed into a big rig and a concrete wall after spinning in circles on the 10 Freeway in Baldwin Park on Wednesday afternoon, April 9, 2025.

According to authorities, at around 4:00 p.m., dashcam footage captured a 2021 BMW 750 performing doughnuts on the eastbound side of the freeway just west of Baldwin Park Boulevard before striking the side of a semi-truck.

The BMW continued circling and skidding across lanes for over three minutes before making multiple contacts with a retaining wall and ultimately crashing head-on into a concrete barrier.

The driver, identified as 36-year-old Jamel Price of Victorville, exited the vehicle and rolled around on the freeway before being taken into custody by a Los Angeles Police Department motorcycle officer who had witnessed the incident.

California Highway Patrol officers arrived at the scene and assumed control of the investigation. CHP confirmed that drugs were a contributing factor in the crash.

It remains unclear whether the driver of the big rig sustained any injuries. The California Highway Patrol is continuing to investigate the incident.

Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?

Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:

  • Check yourself for any injuries.
  • Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
  • Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
  • Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
  • Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
  • Seek immediate medical attention.
  • Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.

What A Lawyer Can Do For You

Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
