Lillian Garcia of Oxnard was pronounced dead at the scene at 5:10 a.m. Friday, 40 minutes after the single-car accident, said Dale Zentzis of the Ventura County coroner’s office.
Garcia was heading east on the Moorpark Freeway just north of Moorpark when she missed the 90-degree turn in the road at Broadway, the California Highway Patrol said.
