North Carolina NASCAR driver exceeded alcohol level
NORTH CAROLINA - NASCAR driver Rob Moroso had a blood-alcohol level of more than twice the legal limit for North Carolina when he was killed in a traffic wreck Sunday night when he slid his speeding car around a country-road curve, killing himself and an innocent victim, a medical examiner said Wednesday. An autopsy conducted by Dr. Patrick Lantz of North Carolina Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem showed Moroso's blood alcohol content was .22. Moroso was driving home late Sunday night after racing in the Holly Farms 400 at Charlotte Motor Speedway.
