Truck driver in fatal Florida crash repeatedly failed driving tests, official says. What to know
October 24, 2025
A commercial truck driver who is charged with killing three people in a deadly crash in Florida in August had failed a commercial driver’s license repeatedly. That’s according to a senior official in the Florida Attorney General’s Office. Harjinder Singh failed a CDL test 10 times in the span of two months in Washington state in 2023, before Washington ultimately issued him a license, the official said. Singh is also accused of being in the country illegally. Florida is using his case of Harjinder Singh to urge the Supreme Court to permanently bar some states from giving CDLs to people who are not U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents.
