On March 7, 1968, at 3:50 p.m., a 1964 Chevrolet two-door sedan driven by a man under the influence of alcohol and carbon monoxide, traveling west (wrong way) in the eastbound lanes of Interstate 15, 3 miles east of its intersection with California route 127, near Baker, California, collided with an interstate bus. Both vehicles were being driven at normal freeway cruising speed. The bus overturned and was subsequently gutted by fire, resulting in the death of 19 of the 30 passengers. The 11 survivors suffered injuries that varied from minor to severe. The automobile driver was killed instantly by impact forces and then ejected from the car. The automobile caught fire from the bus fire and was also gutted. (Author)
