HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY – Florida Highway Patrol troopers are investigating a crash that occurred at approximately 9:20 a.m. on Saturday, August 23, 2025.
According to investigators, a single-unit dump truck driven by a 54-year-old Tampa man was traveling westbound on the access road leading from U.S. 301 to westbound I-4 and U.S. 92 when the driver lost control. The truck collided with the median divider wall, overturned, and caught fire.
The impact propelled pieces of concrete into the path of a Ford sedan driven by a 21-year-old Lake Mary man. The sedan struck the debris before coming to rest on the highway shoulder.
