 TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - The high-speed automobile accident that critically injured Gov. Jon S. Corzine has focused attention on the practices of governors' official drivers across the nation.
Corzine, who took his first steps Wednesday since his April 12 crash and is expected to leave the hospital in the week ahead, suffered 11 broken ribs, a severe leg fracture and other injuries when the state SUV in which he was a passenger went out control and smashed into a guard rail.
The vehicle, driven by a state trooper, was going 91 mph in a 65 mph zone with its emergency lights flashing.
