19yo driver allegedly rammed rideshare with two people inside
A 19-year-old driver who allegedly rammed a rideshare vehicle carrying two passengers has been arrested in Adelaide's north, with SA Police also responding to several other crashes, including one in which a 53-year-old man was killed.
A 19-year-old man has been arrested in Adelaide, Australia, after allegedly ramming a rideshare vehicle with two passengers at Greenwith in the city's north. The incident, which occurred around 2:15am, is believed to be one of several crashes that occurred in the state that day. The driver of the rideshare vehicle, a 31-year-old man, and his passenger, a 25-year-old man, escaped with only minor injuries.
The 19-year-old driver allegedly refused a breath test and was later found to have a blood-alcohol reading of 0.116. He has been charged with drink driving, driving disqualified, failing to comply with direction, and two counts of endangering life. He is set to appear in the Elizabeth Magistrates Court on November 27. Police are urging witnesses or anyone with CCTV or dashcam footage to come forward.
The incident is part of a series of crashes across South Australia in the past 24 hours, including a fatal collision at Virginia and a serious rollover accident at Port Wakefield.
