SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Three people were injured -- two with life-threatening injuries -- after an 18-year-old man lost control of a Honda Accord Tuesday and crashed head-on into a Dodge Ram truck in San Diego.

San Diego Police Department officers were called at 4:12 p.m. to the 16000 block of San Pasqual Valley Road where they learned a 54-year-old man was driving his Dodge Ram truck east on San Pasqual Valley when the Honda, which was traveling west, crossed over the double yellow lines and collided head-on with the Dodge, said Officer Robert Heims.
