Overview
- Attorney General James Uthmeier issued civil and criminal subpoenas to White Hawk Carriers in the probe of the Aug. 12 Florida Turnpike crash that left three people dead.
- His office also sent legal demands to California and Washington for documentation on how Harjinder Singh obtained commercial driver’s licenses in those states.
- DOT records show Washington issued Singh a regular CDL in July 2023 and California issued a limited‑term, non‑domiciled CDL in July 2024, which FMCSA is reviewing for compliance with federal rules.
- Officials say Singh attempted an unauthorized U-turn that led to a jackknife and a minivan collision; he faces three counts of vehicular homicide after being arrested in Stockton and extradited to Florida.
- Post-crash assessments reportedly found poor English proficiency, and an ICE detainer was issued in August as investigators say he entered the U.S. in 2018; White Hawk Carriers has not responded to requests for comment.
