Four Dead In Davidson County Crash on Saturday, May 26, Memorial Day weekend 2007

Friends remember the much loved teens at the crash site

DAVIDSON COUNTY -- Four people died early Saturday after an accident on Joe Moore Road in Davidson County, according to the Highway Patrol.

The victims have been identified as:

-Jacob Mayo, 19, Winston-Salem

-John Calvert, 18, Thomasville

-Zachary Main, 18, Kernersville

-Robert King, 20, Trinity

The victims' families have been notified.

The North Carolina Highway Patrol said the vehicle, driven by Mayo, was travelling at an "extremely high rate of speed" when it left the roadway and struck a tree.

Three of the victims were thrown from the vehicle; all are believed to have been wearing seatbelts.

Officials believe the crash happened around 2 a.m. Saturday.

The victims were not discovered until 9 a.m. Saturday when residents living nearby spotted the car.

Alcohol was found inside the vehicle at the scene and Highway Patrol officers suspect alcohol was a factor in the crash.

An autopsy will be conducted to determine if the driver had been drinking.

Investigators are working with the victims' friends and family to determine where the victims obtained the alcohol.

While it is yet to be determined how and if alcohol played a role in the accident and deaths of the four teens from Davidson Couty, Casey Bokhoven was definitely a victim of a drunk driver.
Casey died March 11, 2007. While standing on a sidewalk in Winston-Salem, NC, he was hit and killed by news anchor Tolly Carr.

  • At least they didn't kill anyone else.

  • If they drink and drive good riddance!

    Fortunately they didn't hit somebody innocent while driving under the influence of alcohol.

    Drunk drivers should all be SHOT!! And those dumb enough to sit in a car with a drunk driver can suit themselves.

    They were good people? Since when are people drinking and driving recklessly "good people"?

    A friend of mine knew some jerk who drove drunk and that guy hit two little girls on bicycles. Fortunately they didn't die.

    Don't drink and drive!!

  • So sad it's horrific to lose some one so close

  • faggot against drunk driving

  • @XA7XX7AX its sad that people like you do this just for reactions, it was stupid on my part to let you egg me on, but I hope you enjoy you time sitting at home with nothing better to do.

  • @bondfan06 lol driving like a dumbass, not on a track, i would say it to your face i dont give a shit. only said it on here because obviously youre not here! oh yeah good driver, thats why he hit a tree, should have saved it for the race track. i know someone who died speeding down a street and blew up his wrx and died. except he was alone and didnt take anyone with him.

  • @XA7XX7AX : Nobody forced those people to get in the car with him. If he was intoxicated like the rest of the passengers, then it was a big bag of fail-y death landing in their lap. That is on *them*. Unless there are true innocent people getting hurt outside of that car, there are no victims.

  • watch what you say before you trash these guys, I knew Jacob and he was a great guy. XA7XX7AX, how dare you say that about someone, its easy to hide behind a computer screen come say that to the families face, or heck my face

  • @ladeedaaa well agreed, I worked with Jacob and knew him. he was a great guy.

  • @bladeere14 hey screw you, you didn't know these guys. they were great guys and made a mistake.
