TRENTON, N.J. — The sport utility vehicle carrying Governor Corzine was traveling about 91 mph moments before it crashed, the superintendent of state police said yesterday.
The governor was critically injured when the vehicle crashed into a guardrail on the Garden State Parkway just north of Atlantic City last week. He apparently was not wearing his seat belt as he rode in the front passenger’s seat.
The speed limit along that stretch of the parkway is 65 mph.
