The Villages, FL (January 26, 2019) - A two-car collision in The Villages left four people in the hospital on Thursday, January 24th. The crash happened around 12:30 pm at the intersection of Del Mar Drive and Rio Grande Avenue.
Police report that 78-year-old Earl Sidney Devine was driving a 2007 Town and Country minivan southbound on Del Mar. Devine came to a stop sign with the intersection of Rio Grande but he failed to stop before proceeding into the intersection. His van collided with a 2014 Honda CRV driven by 89-year-old Lester Robert Voell. Devine and Voell, along with their passengers were taken to The Villages Regional Hospital by EMS units. There is no update on their condition or the extent of their injuries.
Police are looking into the crash and have charged Devine with failing to yield at an intersection.
A reportable accident happens in Florida about every 92 seconds. In nearly every crash, at least one driver is at fault or negligent for causing the collision. Failing to yield at stop signs and stop lights is a frequent cause of many serious crashes throughout our state. A failure to yield often causes a high-speed collision that can lead to catastrophic results for all involved. In this case, we hope that those who suffered injuries will make a full and complete recovery.
