A self-driving trip in the United States by a Singaporean family of four resulted in three deaths and one injury. After a three-car pile-up, the parents and their 22-year-old son were killed on the spot, while their 19-year-old daughter survived.

"Lianhe Wanbao" reporter followed step by step and found out that both siblings are very good. Justlyn Yeo Jing Hui (19 years old) is a freshman student at Nanyang Technological University's Wee Kim Fai School of Communication and Information. She is active in various activities inside and outside the school.

His elder brother Justin Yeo Jun Xi (22 years old) won the Armed Forces Merit Scholarship two years ago and is a sophomore student at the University of California, Berkeley.

The fatal car accident occurred last Friday (22nd) at approximately 2:21 pm US time (5:21 am Singapore time on the 23rd) on the northbound National Highway 64 in Arizona.

When the car accident occurred, a silver Hyundai car traveling northbound on National Highway 64 passed the dividing line for some reason and collided with an oncoming green truck.

After the car collided with the truck, it then hit another car. The entire front half of the car was badly damaged, which shows the huge impact.

The driver and two passengers in the car died on the spot, and the other passenger was sent to the local Flagstaff Medical Center.

The truck veered off the lane after the collision. The driver died on the spot, and the other four passengers were also sent to the above-mentioned medical center. The third vehicle involved in the crash did not suffer any injuries.

When asked, the Arizona Department of Public Safety stated that the identity of the deceased will not be disclosed until all immediate family members of the deceased are notified of the accident.

However, it is understood that Yang Junxi was driving when the incident occurred. His parents and sister were taking advantage of the Christmas holiday to go to the United States to visit him and a relative who had settled in the United States.

Unexpectedly, the couple and their son died unexpectedly, and the only surviving daughter needed to be hospitalized for treatment. (Transliteration of person’s name)

After the incident, Yang Jinghui was seriously injured and needed spinal surgery. However, she has just been transferred out of the intensive care unit and her injuries are stable.

According to "Lianhe Wanbao", the family attends services at the Living Hope Methodist Church in Tampines every Sunday.

Church pastor Chen Mingqing (in his 50s) revealed in an interview this morning that the family is usually quite quiet and does not talk much. They did not attend church gatherings last Sunday (17th) and are believed to have left for the United States.

"The church is paying close attention to their situation and hopes to help deal with their aftermath."

Friends who travel must be careful when choosing self-driving tours, because traffic regulations and road widths are unfamiliar, and traffic accidents often occur. The Grand Canyon is very popular among travelers, but traffic accidents occur on this section of the road, so it is best to ask a local tour guide to navigate or drive there.
