This man’s death is a tragedy for his family and his community. Drivers on Florida state roads should exercise the utmost caution when driving. Automobile accidents can inflict serious person injuries and sometimes cause death. Drivers should always pay attention to their surroundings, keep distractions to a minimum (e.g., by not talking or texting on the cell phont), look both ways to ensure you are not turning into oncoming traffic, etc. If drivers exhibit these behaviors while driving Florida’s state roads will become safer for children, pedestrians and motorcyclists.
