Illegal migrant truck driver in deadly Florida crash failed English, road sign tests — despite getting licenses from 2 sanctuary states
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 announced Tuesday.
Despite these failures, Singh – who is believed to have entered the US illegally in 2018 — had been granted commercial driver’s licenses in California and Washington state.
“This crash was a preventable tragedy directly caused by reckless decisions and compounded by despicable failures,” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said in a statement.
“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.
