Pino was headed westbound when he started to slide on the wet roadways as he negotiated the curve. Pino over-corrected losing control of the vehicle and he started to skid sideways. Ultimately, the vehicle struck a curb and left the roadway.
The vehicle continued traveling onto the shoulder where it impacted a tree with the driver’s side front wheel and quarter panel. The impact of the crash caused the vehicle to split in two with the front engine compartment on one side of the tree and the vehicle’s cab coming to a rest on the opposite side of the tree. There were no other vehicles involved in the crash.
