Deputies report that the Volkswagen lost control and drove into the eastbound highway lane causing it to collide into a semi-truck stopped at the red light, driven by Alexis Verdugo, a 30 year-old resident of Calexico. The semi-truck was stopped on the #2 eastbound SR-62 lane at a red light when it was hit by the Volkswagen.
