As a direct result of four teens dying in a high speed crash Memorial Day weekend, the NC State Highway Patrol is increasing manpower by nine officers to crack down on speeding as well as other driving offenses in Davidson Country through the month of July.

Officers are trying to cut down the number of driving fatalities in the county by targeting speeders, drunk drivers, aggressive drivers and seat belt violators.

Stepped up patrols will be on major highways and rural paved roads in the county.

There have been 121 fatal collisions resulting in 133 fatalities in Davidson County since January of 2002.

So far this year, there have been 18 traffic fatalities. That’s up 63.6% since this time last year.

Members of the dead teens’ families spoke at a press conference to announce the increase in law enforcement.

Story from Memorial Day weekend 2007

Four teens died Saturday May 26 2007, in Davidson County, North Carolina, just one county over from Winston-Salem.

The four teens, all underage, died in the horrific wreck when the car they were riding in crashed into a tree around 2 am. The car and the dead teenagers were not discovered until 9 am. It is believed that they were wearing seatbelts, but three of the victims were thrown from the vehicle.

Law enforcement says an “extremely high rate of speed” was a factor and alcohol was found inside the car at the scene. Investigators are working with the victims’ friends and family to determine where the boys got the alcohol.

Investigators are trying to determine if alcohol played a factor in the accident.

Killed in the crash-

-Jacob Mayo, 19, Winston-Salem (driver)

-Chad Calvert, 18, Thomasville

-Zachary Main, 18, Kernersville

-Robert King, 20, Trinity

While it is yet to be determined how and if alcohol played a role in the accident and deaths of the four teens from Davidson Couty, Casey Bokhoven was definitely a victim of a drunk driver.

Casey died March 11, 2007. While standing on a sidewalk in Winston-Salem, NC, he was hit and killed by news anchor Tolly Carr.

Four North Carolina Teens Killed In Car Crash- Memorial Day weekend 2007

Four friends were killed in a high speed wreck that was so forceful it ripped out seat belts and sliced the car in half, police say.

Davidson County, NC — The wreck occurred early Saturday near Thomasville.

Robert King, 20, of Trinity; Jacob Mayo, 19, of northern Davidson County; John “Chad” Calvert, 18, of Thomasville, and Zachary Main, 18, of Kernersville, died in the wreck.

Police said alcohol was suspected in the wreck and a blood test was being conducted on the driver.

Mayo was driving a 1998 Nissan Altima which ran off both sides of Burton Road, ran a stop sign, hit a wire and then a tree, which cut the car in half, said Highway Patrol Trooper Mickey Mantel. He declined to release an estimate of the speed.

“It’s going to put a real damper on this summer and it’s going to make a lot of people reconsider what they do. It’s going to make a lot of people cautious,” says Christopher John, a friend of one of the victims.

The crash was discovered about 8:45 a.m. by a passing driver, who saw a body lying in a field

The crash happened about a hundred yards away from the Hasty Fire Department. Firefighters there say they heard a loud sound around 2 a.m. Saturday.

But it wasn’t until a driver passed by around 9 a.m. when they reported the crash. One firefighter says they thought a car went into a ditch and was able to get out.

As of late Saturday, the Highway Patrol said seven people had died in wrecks across the state during the Memorial Day weekend.
