Sheriff's deputies say her son, Loc Pham, was trying to back his Honda Accord into his mother's driveway when the accident happened.

The Honda sideswiped a parked vehicle before striking Nguyen.

The car continued through the front yard before it crashed into the neighbor's house.

Investigators do not believe Pham was impaired.

The accident is still under investigation.
