posted 6:24 pm Tue September 25, 2007 - Alexandria, Va.
A 17-year-old T.C. Williams High School student remains in grave condition after a serious car crash Monday morning.
"I wasn't thinking," her boyfriend, 19-year-old Ghalib Sethi, said, after crashing his father's blue Dodge Stealth in Alexandria around 9:30 a.m. Sethi admits he was speeding, driving at least 60 miles an hour down the 4,500-block of Eisenhower Avenue.
"We were going pretty fast, curb came and I just lost control," Sethi said.
Sethi only received minor bruising and a few cuts, but his passenger remains at a local hospital.
Alexandria City Police say no other cars were involved in the accident.
"We decided to just chill, skipping class, basically," Sethi said. "The cop asked me, did you learn your lesson, and I said it's more then a lesson."
