The people in both cars were on their way home from a teenager's
birthday party. They were heading east on Los Feliz Boulevard when
Hernandez changed lanes in an attempt to pass the parents' vehicle at a
high rate of speed, police said.

As the Nissan pulled alongside the car with adults, the sedan with the
five youths came upon a slow-moving vehicle, and the driver swerved to
avoid hitting it, Johnson said. The car then struck a tree and burst
into flames.

Sounds like bad driving killed 'em, not a slow-moving vehicle.
