SUWANNEE COUNTY, Fla. (WCTV) – A woman was pronounced dead at the scene of a crash Friday afternoon in Suwannee County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The crash unfolded at the intersection of US 27 and US 129 at about 12:30 p.m., troopers report.
A pickup driven by an 18-year-old with two teenage passengers was heading east on US 27 toward the US 129 intersection, officials say. Meanwhile, a sedan traveling north on CR 49, driven by a 49-year-old woman, was also approaching the intersection.
The sedan began traveling through the intersection on a green light, and the pickup truck “failed to stop at the traffic control device,” FHP troopers say.
The pickup t-boned the sedan, causing the truck to overturn on its right side on the north shoulder of US 27, and the sedan came to a final rest on the same shoulder, troopers say.
The 49-year-old driver of the Hyundai was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash by EMS, according to an FHP press release.
The driver of the pickup and his two passengers did not sustain any injuries, per Florida Highway Patrol.
