Hernando County, FL (November 7, 2019) - A Spring Hill motorcyclist was killed in a crash that occurred on Wednesday, November 6th. The accident took place on the US-19 around 10:00 a.m.
According to authorities, 26-year-old Giovanni I. Ramos was riding a 2012 Honda CBR northbound on US-19. At the same time, 83-year-old Margaret D. Fair of Spring Hill was traveling southbound. Fair attempted to make a U-turn and turned into the path of Ramos's motorcycle. Ramos swerved to avoid a crash and laid his motorcycle down. He was rushed to Regional Medical Center at Bayonet Point, where he later succumbed to his injuries. Fair was not hurt in the crash.
Troopers are still investigating at this time. Charges are pending against Fair.
Motorcycles are enjoyed by many throughout our state. Some people also utilize motorcycles as a primary mode of transportation. While motorcycles can be enjoyable, they also pose a great danger when motorcyclists are involved in a crash with a larger vehicle. Unfortunately, motorcycles are not built to withstand high-impact collisions with larger vehicles and the results can be quite catastrophic. If you have lost a loved one in a Florida motorcycle crash, you could be entitled to file a claim under Florida's wrongful death law for recovery of certain types of damages.
Our thoughts and condolences are with the family of Giovanni I. Ramos during this difficult time.
