A Kissimmee man was killed on Osceola-Polk Line Road Thursday morning before dawn when his vehicle collided head-on with a semi-truck, Florida Highway Patrol has reported.
The 33-year-old man was traveling westbound near Sandy Ridge Lane shortly before 6 a.m. when, as FHP reports, his Toyota Camry veered into the eastbound lane into the direct path of the semi-truck driven by a man from Riverview. The two collided head-on, causing the truck to jackknife and block the eastbound lanes. Another vehicle traveling eastbound behind the truck crashed into the truck’s trailer.
The Camry driver was pronounced deceased on scene. The truck driver and driver and passenger of the third vehicle were not injured and remained on scene, FHP said. The crash, which closed both lanes of Osceola-Polk Line Road for a period of the morning, remains under investigation.
