A tragic incident occurred in California involving a 64-year-old man who was fatally injured while instructing his teenage daughter during a driving session, as confirmed by the Laguna Beach Police Department to Fox News Digital on Wednesday. It was also revealed that the 15-year-old was operating under a learner’s permit.
The deadly accident occurred late Monday afternoon on the well-traveled Coast Highway in California. James Politoski was the sole passenger in the car, as reported by Fox 11, an affiliate of Fox News.
James Politoski lost his life in this unfortunate car accident on Memorial Day while guiding his teen daughter during a driving lesson. The young girl suffered injuries but is anticipated to recover.
“This is a heartbreaking situation that not only impacts the immediate families involved but also deeply affects our entire community,” LBPD’s Lieutenant Jesse Schmidt told Fox News Digital. “It is always difficult when an accident leads to the loss of life—especially under circumstances where a parent was simply trying to do the right thing by teaching their child a valuable life skill.”
Schmidt also expressed the department’s condolences to the family and friends of Politoski.
