CITRUS COUNTY, Fla. — One person is dead after a crash involving two vehicles in Citrus County on Saturday afternoon.
A Dodge Ram was traveling eastbound on County Road 480, while a Toyota Tundra was going westbound on the same road.
West of South Meredith Avenue, the Dodge crossed the center line of the street for an unknown reason and collided nearly head-on with the Toyota.
Both vehicles rotated after impact. The Dodge came to a stop in the westbound lane and the Toyota stopped in the northern grass shoulder.
The driver of the Toyota, a 56-year-old man from Inverness, suffered fatal injuries at the scene of the crash.
'Cruise lights' on Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office patrol cars raise questions, confusion among drivers
Every driver knows that when you see red and blue flashing lights on a patrol car, you slow down, pull over, or get out of the way.
But in Hillsborough County, drivers will also now see deputies with their lights on, but not flashing. They're called "cruise lights," and the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office (HCSO) recently implemented their use on all patrol vehicles.
