5 Drivers Injured In 5-Vehicle Crash On I-75: FL Highway Patrol

PASCO COUNTY, FL — All five drivers were injured in a Wednesday morning five-vehicle crash on Interstate 75, the Florida Highway Patrol said in a news release.

The vehicles were all heading south on the highway, just south of State Road 54, at the time of the crash, around 6:40 a.m.

One vehicle moved to the outside lane to avoid crashing into another vehicle that was slowing or stopped in the center lane without its signal on and waiting to change lanes, FHP said.

This caused all five vehicles to collide, troopers said.

All drivers suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash and one was brought to an area hospital for treatment.

A flatbed commercial vehicle involved in the crash overturned in the collision, which caused lane closures for several hours on Wednesday morning.
