What do you want to do?
Veronica Hayes was headed south on Blume Road at about 9:40 p.m. when her vehicle ran off the left side of the road, causing her to overcorrect and then run off the right side of the road. Her 1995 Pontiac Grand Am struck an embankment and overturned, ejecting the teenager, who was apparently not wearing a seat belt. Speed appears to have been a factor. Hayes was pronounced dead at the scene.
