The FHP reports reveal that the collision occurred when one of the passenger vehicles, driving in the center lane of I-95, swerved left to avoid slow traffic. The driver lost control of the vehicle by overcorrecting and jerking the wheel to the right. The right side of the car collided with the left side of another vehicle. As the first car lost control, it collided with the semi and then struck the concrete median. If you would like to read more on this story please see 4 sent to the hospital after collision on I-95.
Inattentive driving causing too many collisions on Florida roadways. Driver distraction has become a huge problem within the state of Florida. Distracted driving includes talking and texting on the cellphone, driving, eating, talking to passengers and listening to music loudly while driving. These behaviors take the drivers attention off the road and places their focus elsewhere. By keeping these behaviors to a minimum, Florida roadways will become safer for all.
