5:30 pm – identification of the badly burned body is still on-going, however, a wallet was found with ID that matched the registration on the vehicle. This information does NOT point to a Big Sur local, but to someone who lives in town.
2:00 pm – KSBY confirms the driver, and sole occupant, of the vehicle died in the accident. There is speculation about who the driver was, but nothing is confirmed at this time.

That is really sad news Kate.
Oh, darn Kate. I saw emergency services headed down the coast awhile ago, and had been hoping it wasn't for something dire....
Kate... Dani & the baby were headed down there just around 10:30am. She was in a black Azuzu Montero. She was supposed to be back here between 1:00 - 1:30pm but hasn't showed up. Elijah sits in the carseat in the back seat. PLEASE let me know if it was them!!!
Pennie, accident happened between 9 and 9:30. Male driver the sole occupant. NOT Dani.
Any word on who was killed? It makes me worry. The highway has taken a lot of folks I have known.
