Fatal Crash Driver Held Without Bond; Victim ID’d As 51-Year-Old Princess Anne Man

OCEAN CITY — A Cockeysville, Md. man arrested on manslaughter, vehicular homicide and dozens of other charges on Friday for a fatal collision on Coastal Highway remains behind bars this week without bond after a bail review hearing on Monday.

Around 1:15 a.m. last Friday, the Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) received a call about a reported drunk driver and a description of the vehicle. OCPD officers located the suspect’s vehicle, a white Lexus LX570, in the area of 59th Street and Coastal Highway and attempted to stop it.

According to crash investigators, the driver, later identified as Todd Pivec, 41, of Cockeysville, Md., failed to stop and continued southbound on Coastal Highway. OCPD officers briefly lost sight of Pivec’s vehicle according to police reports. Moments later, Pivec’s vehicle struck another vehicle heading south on Coastal Highway in the area of 46th Street.

The force of the collision caused the victim’s vehicle to become engulfed in flames. The victim, identified only as a 51-year-old male from Princess Anne, was pronounced deceased at the scene. The victim’s name is being withheld at the request of his family.

  3. I like how the police report says they "briefly lost sight of the vehicle" before it crashed at a high rate of speed into the victim's vehicle. Not that they were engaged in a high speed pursuit at the time of the collision, but that they briefly lost sight of the vehicle during the chase. Nice job of making it look like the police didn't have anything to do with the accident. It's what they do.....

    The reports aren't about the facts, they are about protecting the cops and their department, first and foremost; then the "facts" can be reported.

    1. Point ? You picked a safe part time job in school teaching and failed society by passing kids who could not read and write. We aren’t complaining so why are you ?

  4. The police didn't have anything to do with the crash. One person is responsible- the drunk driver.

  5. So the police doing there job, attempt to stop a vehicle, said vehicle flees and crashes, but it's the police fault? Your hilarious....submit an application at your local PD and give it a shot.

    Yeah, that's right. Chase that car no matter how many lives are put at risk by the CHASE, not the driver. Many police departments have specific policies for not putting the public at risk with high speed pursuits. Are you not an informed person on this subject, or do you just watch too many of those Live PD shows? I'm glad you find me funny. I find your spelling and grammar to be humorous, as well, but I wouldn't recommend you putting in an application anywhere. Not likely it would get a second look.

    1. So let them go and then endanger how many lives? Your reasoning holds no merit. The driver is at fault, not the PD. The idea is to get the damn drunk off the streets. On second thought the court system is at fault for letting the asshole off 8 times prior.
