Forest.

Nicole Catsouras, 18, lost control of a black Porsche 911
Carrera while attempting to pass another vehicle at more than
100 mph, California Highway Patrol officials said.
The Porsche crossed the center median, traveled across north
lanes and the Alton Parkway southbound on-ramp, before colliding
into a toll booth building.
Nicole Catsouras was pronounced dead at the scene from head
trauma.
Police said she was attempting to pass a gray Honda Civic
traveling about 70 mph in the far left lane, when the Porsche
clipped the Honda and lost control.
The Honda then veered to the left and hit the center median.
The driver of the Honda, a 20-year-old man from Rancho Santa
Margarita, was taken by ambulance to Mission Hospital with minor
to moderate injuries. Both drivers were wearing seatbelts.
Police found open alcoholic beverage containers inside of the
Honda but alcohol is not suspected as a cause of the collision,
CHP officials said.
A toll booth operator was believed to be in the structure at the
time of the accident. There were no additional injuries, CHP
officials said.
An update - In January of 2012, the Catsouras family received a
court settlement of over 2.3 million dollars from the California
Highway Patrol as the result of these images being released
online.
