Two people died in an early afternoon, head-on collision in Winter Park, Florida. It was reported that the collision occurred when a speeding Ford Mustang coupe lost control, struck two trees in the median and flipped into the path of an oncoming Kia van. Both drivers died. The wife of the van’s driver suffered serious personal injuries.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver of the 1989 Mustang, 28-year-old Ryan Daniel Burns of Winter Park Florida, caused the crash by speeding and making aggressive lane changes. State records revealed that Burns’ driver’s license was canceled last when he failed to complete a substance abuse treatment program. Burns’ license was also suspended last year after he caused a two-car collision on Interstate-4 in Lake Mary, Florida. In the Lake Mary collision, Burns was charged with driving under the influence when his blood alcohol level was 0.112; the limit in Florida is 0.08.
The victims in the Kia van were 40-year-old Loren Scott Bezoff and his wife Tami Bezoff. Loren died and Tami was sent to Winter Park Memorial Hospital. A third vehicle, a 2010 Toyota SUV, was also involved in the collision when the SUV was struck by debris from the initial crash. No one in the Toyota was injured.

The deaths of these two mean are a tragedy for their families and communities. Aggressive driving such as speeding, cutting drivers off, hostile lane changes, etc. can have life changing or even deadly consequences. Drivers need to be courteous of other drivers and passengers on the road. Also, drivers need to obey speed limits. Speeding decreases a driver’s reaction time and brake time, thus, increasing his or her chances for being involved in a collision.
