A single-vehicle rollover on the night of Friday, October 23, 2026, left one man dead and two other people hospitalized in Del Mar. The crash happened at about 9:40 p.m. in the 2900 block of Camino Del Mar, and the car ended up in the front yard of a home. The driver, an adult woman, was reportedly hospitalized with serious injuries, and a male passenger was taken to the hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.

NBC 7 San Diego reports that, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office, the driver of a 2008 BMW 328i allegedly passed another vehicle on the right, lost control and rolled over. The sheriff’s office said drugs or alcohol were believed to be a factor in the collision. The North Coastal Traffic Division is investigating the cause, and no charges or test results had been reported. Anyone hurt in a crash like this may have legal options, and an impaired-driving allegation is not a finding until the investigation is complete.

What the Law Says

California Vehicle Code section 21754 limits when a driver may pass another vehicle on the right, allowing it only under specified conditions and only when it can be done safely. A driver who allegedly passes on the right and loses control may be found to have violated this rule, which can matter when deciding who is responsible for a crash.

Vehicle Code section 23153 addresses driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and committing an act that causes bodily injury to another person. A criminal case is separate from a civil claim for injuries or wrongful death, and families and injured people can ask about their rights.
