More Red Light Cameras Planned for Kissimmee, Florida
In a move that Orlando personal injury attorneys and lawyers throughout Central Florida welcome, Kissimmee officials have approved new red light cameras at some of the city’s busiest intersections. Red light cameras have been installed at the intersection of Main Street and Neptune Road since early in 2012, and the city recently installed others at Thacker Avenue and U.S. Highway 192. In June, the city will install more cameras along Highway 192 intersections with Thacker Boulevard, Bass Road and John Young Parkway. Kissimmee spokeswoman Carla Banks said the new sites were chosen due to high traffic volume and persistent problems with drivers disobeying traffic signals.
Fatal Florida Turnpike Crash Caused By Driver Changing CD
Accident investigators found that a recent fatal auto accident on the Florida Turnpike was caused by a driver who was changing the compact disc in her car. Florida Highway Patrol investigators say the recent accident occurred around 2:50 p.m. at Mile Marker 237, south of Kissimmee-St. Cloud and closed two lanes of the Turnpike for several hours. They say the 63-year-old victim was driving her 2000 Chevrolet SUV southbound on the Turnpike when a 2001 Pontiac Firebird driven by a 55-year-old West Palm Beach woman suddenly veered from the left lane into the right and struck the SUV. The impact caused the SUV to roll over onto its roof and skid a short distance. Although she was wearing a seatbelt, the SUV driver died from her injuries at the scene. Two passengers in the SUV were treated for minor injuries. Charges are pending against the driver of the Firebird, who suffered minor injuries in the crash.
