    485 is nothing but a speedway. Drivers drive like maniacs. And we wonder why insurance rates are so high.

      The car that the person died in ran out in front of a truck and he ran over it by accident…

      No a car cut in front of the red tractor trailer and it didn’t see it and hit the car it is under the tractor trailer…the other one couldn’t do anything and got hit. I live right there next to it. It wasn’t road rage it was an accident a tragic one. I was letting my dogs out and heard it. Hope this helps🤍

    News reports: Apparently, the driver of the red car hit one tractor-trailer, which caused that truck to cross the median, there it struck the other tractor-trailer. The other two cars were caught-up in that. The driver of thefirst truck was killed. Charges are pending.

      and charges should be filed. Vehicular manslaughter gets you an easy 10 years in prison here in Florida.

    Not near enough state troopers to patrol 485. This is not surprising the way drivers fly and drive recklessly 24/7 on this road. The only surprising thing is that there are not a lot more deaths than these with the way drivers are on this highway.

      Nah, have you seen the way people drive on 485? It's like a speedway and not near enough law enforcement to control it.
