POINT MUGU — A man was killed Thursday night after he lost control of his convertible along a sharp turn on northbound Pacific Coast Highway and plunged 40 feet to his death.
Authorities did not identify the victim, the sole occupant of the car, but said he was in his mid-30s. He was driving a gray Mazda Miata about a mile north of Deer Creek Road about 7 p.m. when the accident occurred, California Highway Patrol Officer Anthony Pedeferri said.
"He was out of control for quite a distance," Pedeferri said.
About 200 feet of skid marks showed the driver had tried to stop but was going too fast, authorities said. The car crossed into the southbound lanes, struck a soft shoulder and spun around before flipping and landing on its top.
Authorities would not say whether alcohol was involved.
