Indian-Origin Driver Cleared of DUI in California Truck Crash, Case Proceeds on Negligence

A young man named Jashanpreet was driving a big truck in California when a crash happened, and sadly, three people died.

He was arrested because police thought he might have been drinking and driving.

His family said that wasn't true because he is very disciplined and doesn't do drugs.

Now, the official test results are out, and they show he wasn't under the influence of any substances when the crash happened.

The police have changed the reason they are charging him; instead of 'driving under the influence,' they are now saying he was 'grossly negligent.'

This means the case will continue, but the focus will be on how he was driving, not on whether he was drinking.

His family hopes he gets justice and that people stop spreading false rumors.
