The first vehicle hit the second one, which was disabled in the right lane, and spun it around.

The driver of the second vehicle was ejected and later pronounced dead at the scene.

The first vehicle continued and hit the third vehicle, sending both of them into the guide rail, police said.

According to police, the driver of the third vehicle was suspected to be driving under the influence.
