UPDATE 11:08 A.M.:

According to the driver, Marjon Francisco, he was driving east on highway 178 near M street when his steering wheel locked up. 

He lost control of his car crashing into the embankment.

"I tried to turn my wheel but instead of turning it just kept going straight.  It happened so fast I couldn't hit my brakes or anything.  I panicked I guess you can say," he said.
