美國交通部透露，這名印度移民卡車司機被指控在佛羅裏達州高速公路上非法掉頭，導致三人死亡。事故發生後，他的英語流利程度和路標測試成績嚴重不及格。
4月12日車禍發生後，Harjinder Singh在接受美國聯邦汽車運輸安全管理局（FASA）的英語水平測試時，僅答對了12道題中的兩道。
美國交通部 (DOT) 周二宣布，當被要求閱讀高速公路標誌及其含義時，辛格隻能識別出四個標誌中的一個。

盡管存在這些缺陷，據信辛格於2018年非法入境美國，但他還是獲得了加利福尼亞州和華盛頓州的商業駕駛執照 (CDL)。
交通部長肖恩·達菲在一份聲明中表示：“這起車禍是一場可避免的悲劇，它直接由魯莽的決定造成，並因卑鄙的失誤而加劇。”

“執法不力和激進的移民政策已將卡車運輸業變成了無法無天的邊疆，導致不合格的外國司機以不正當手段獲得駕駛40噸重車輛的駕照。”
辛格被指控引發了這起致命事故，因為他試圖在標有“僅限官方使用”的高速公路捷徑上非法掉頭，而他巨大的拖車擋住了這條四車道的高速公路。
一輛小型貨車根本來不及刹車或轉彎，就全速撞上了這輛拖車。
貨車上的三名乘客全部遇難，而從辛格駕駛室內拍攝到的畫麵顯示，他對外麵正在發生的慘劇似乎無動於衷。
幾十年來，聯邦法律一直規定，商業駕駛執照 (CDL) 持有人必須能夠“充分”地使用英語與公眾交談並閱讀路標——達菲於5月簽署了一項命令，以加強這些法律。

在加州，CDL考試隻以英語進行，而華盛頓州允許以英語、西班牙語、俄語或塞爾維亞-克羅地亞語進行考試。
辛格究竟是如何在這些條件下獲得駕照的目前尚不清楚，但交通部表示他們打算查明真相。
“我們將動用一切手段追究這些州和違規者的責任。特朗普總統和我將恢複我們的道路安全，”達菲說。
警方消息人士此前告訴《華盛頓郵報》，辛格在2018年跨境被拘留後險些被驅逐出境，但2019年1月，他以5000美元保釋金獲釋，當時他告訴美國公民及移民服務局，他害怕返回印度。
此後，他一直在進行移民程序。
您怎麽看？發表評論。
在特朗普第一屆政府執政期間，他的工作許可申請被拒，但在拜登執政期間，他的工作許可在2021年獲得了批準——這些細節引發了加州州長加文·紐姆辦公室與國土安全部在社交媒體上的爭吵。
美國交通部稱，辛格於2023年獲得華盛頓州駕駛執照，並於2024年獲得加州駕駛執照。
周六，他在加州因三項交通殺人罪被美國法警逮捕。
Illegal migrant truck driver in deadly Florida crash failed English, road sign tests — despite getting licenses from 2 sanctuary states
By Alex Oliveira Aug. 19, 2025
The Indian immigrant truck driver accused of killing three people in a crash when he made an illegal U-turn across a Florida highway badly flunked English fluency and road sign tests following the smash-up, the US Department of Transportation revealed.
Harjinder Singh answered just two of 12 questions correctly when being tested for English language proficiency by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration after the April 12 crash.
And when asked to read highway signs and their meanings, Singh could only identify one out of four signs shown to him, the US Department of Transportation (DOT) announced Tuesday.
Harjinder Singh answered just two of 12 questions correctly when being tested for English language proficiency by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration after the April 12 crash.
Despite these failures, Singh – who is believed to have entered the US illegally in 2018 — had been granted commercial driver’s licenses (CDL) in California and Washington state.
Emergency responders arrive to the scene of the crash.St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office“Non-enforcement and radical immigration policies have turned the trucking industry into a lawless frontier, resulting in unqualified foreign drivers improperly acquiring licenses to operate 40-ton vehicles.”
Singh is accused of sparking the deadly accident after he attempted an illegal U-turn through a highway cut-through marked “Official Use Only,” with his massive tractor trailer blocking the four-lane highway.
A minivan was left without a chance to brake or turn, and hurtled at full speed into the trailer.
All three people in the van were killed, while footage from inside Singh’s cab showed him apparently unmoved by the carnage unfolding outside.
Federal law has mandated for decades that CDL holders must be able to speak English “sufficiently” enough to converse with the public and read road signs – with Duffy signing an order in May to bolster those laws.

And in California, CDL tests are administered only in English, while Washington allows tests to be taken in English, Spanish, Russian, or Serbian-Croatian.
“We will use every tool at our disposal to hold these states and bad actors accountable. President Trump and I will restore safety to our roads,” Duffy said.
Singh was nearly deported in 2018 after he was detained crossing the border, but was released on $5,000 bond in January 2019 telling US Citizenship and Immigration Services that he feared returning to India, police sources previously told The Post.
He has been in immigration proceedings ever since.
What do you think? Post a comment.
Under the first Trump administration he was denied a work permit, but was granted one in 2021 under the Biden presidency — details which sparked a social media spat between California Gov. Gavin Newom’s office and the Department of Homeland security.
Singh received his Washington CDL in 2023, and his California license in 2024, the DOT said.
He was arrested in California Saturday by US Marshals on three counts of vehicular homicide.
