The cause of U.S. actor and comedian, Kevin Hart's car
crash, which had him undergo surgery weeks ago, has been revealed.
According to the
California Highway Patrol, which has just completed its report on the accident,
the car crash was caused by the driver operating the vehicle in a reckless
fashion.
According to the crash report obtained by TMZ, Kevin's 1970
Plymouth Barracuda crashed because driver Jared Black gunned the engine and
lost control. The sudden acceleration and loss of control caused the vehicle to
go into a spin and it ended up crashing through a fence and into an embankment.
The report also states that the vehicle did not have any
mechanical issues. It was purely driver error.
Also, none of the 3 people in the car were wearing seat
belts.
"There were fold and crease marks on the
belt surfaces consistent with being folded and tucked into the seats and no
indicators of occupant loading were present."
Cops say even if the
belts were worn at the time of the crash, "they were being worn improperly
due to excessive slack in the belts."
The report details
Kevin leaving the scene after the accident while Jared Black and his fiancee
Rebecca Broxterman remained trapped.
The report says Rebecca Broxterman was pinned between the
top of the right passenger seat and the collapsed roof of the vehicle, with her
head facing the windshield. The report also notes the car was, "not
outfitted to carry rear seat passengers."
