By: FL Accident News Blog as Blog Post

Vero Beach, FL (May 6, 2021) - A 21-year-old woman from Sebastian was killed in a crash that took place in Vero Beach on Thursday. The accident took place around 10:00 a.m. on State Road 60 near I-95.

The Florida Highway Patrol responded to the crash scene. According to troopers, a red SUV was traveling on SR 60 when the vehicle overturned. The driver was identified as a 48-year-old man with passengers ages 55, 21, and 18. The car initially traveled off the right shoulder of the roadway before the driver overcorrected, causing the car to spin back into traffic before it rolled over onto its side. The 21-year-old passenger died in the accident. She has not been identified at this time. 

An investigation is ongoing. There is no further information available.

According to statistics published by NHTSA, a Florida car accident happens somewhere in our state about every 92 seconds and a fatal crash occurs about once every three hours. Sadly, many innocent victims are injured or killed due to the actions of a negligent driver. Each crash must be fully investigated in order to determine the cause and which driver should be held responsible for the outcome.
