TAMPA, FL – A 40-year-old woman drifted off from SR-618 West into the eastbound lanes, causing her to crash head-on with another car, claiming the life of the other driver and injuring herself in the process.
When both vehicles collided around 3 a.m. on Sunday, that’s when both vehicles, the woman’s Honda FIT and the other driver’s car, a Toyota Yaris, began to rotate, WTSP said. Seconds later, the second motorist, a 33-year-old man, an Orlando resident, slammed into a concrete barrier. Once ambulance crews arrived at the scene, they rushed the woman to a nearby hospital, where she is receiving treatment for serious wounds.
