San Andreas, CA — Snow and ice can add dangerous ingredients to driving conditions.

Case in point; Thursday evening at approximately ten o´clock, 48 year old Fatima Aguilera of Arnold was driving her 2005 Jaguar westbound on Cedar Drive just west of Hillcrest Drive.

Her speed; only 10mph and yet when she applied her brakes on a downhill grade she slid off the roadway into a pine tree.

Aguilera´s 53 year old passenger, Arnold resident Mary Sexton, suffered a broken sternum. Aguilera was not injured.
