The driver in the Jan. 28 crash was initially identified by the CHP only as a 65-year-old man; on Monday, Feb. 5, the Kern County coroner’s office named him as Myong Kim.
The wreck was reported at 12:40 a.m. on northbound Interstate 5 near the Lebec off-ramp. A Honda Accord went through a chain-link fence separating the freeway from a service road and overturned, the CHP said, and the driver was ejected.
Kim is believed to have been the only occupant of the car. The CHP said alcohol or drugs were not thought to be a factor.
