An illegal immigrant truck driver in Florida — who should never have had a commercial license in the first place — has been charged with three counts of vehicular homicide after making an illegal U-turn that caused a fiery crash, killing three innocent people.
This individual is an illegal immigrant who was granted a commercial driver’s license by the State of California — and now, three innocent people are dead.

The driver, Harjinder Singh, reportedly crossed the border in 2018, then somehow managed to get a California CDL under that state’s “sanctuary” laws that let illegal immigrants apply for driver’s licenses. This week, while driving a semi-truck on the Florida Turnpike, he tried to pull a U-turn in an unauthorized area. His trailer jackknifed and smashed into a family’s minivan — leaving all three passengers dead.
White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson summed it up perfectly:
“This is a devastating tragedy made even worse by the fact that it was totally preventable. Illegal aliens that have no legal right to be in our country certainly should not be granted commercial drivers’ licenses. Gavin Newscum’s pro-illegal alien policies have deadly consequences.”
Now Singh is sitting in custody facing both vehicular homicide charges and immigration violations, with an ICE detainer already issued. But that doesn’t bring back the lives lost.
Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles director Dave Kerner minced no words either:
“Three people lost their lives as a result of his recklessness, and countless friends and family members will experience the pain of their loss forever.”
This isn’t just a tragic accident — it’s a glaring example of how reckless immigration and licensing policies put American lives at risk. California’s decision to hand out licenses to illegal immigrants didn’t just enable Singh to get behind the wheel of a semi — it indirectly paved the way for three funerals in Florida.
And yet, Democrats like Newsom are still doubling down, putting politics above public safety.
