A man, 58, and his female passenger, 46, died Friday morning after the pickup truck they were traveling in veered off the road and crashed into a semi-truck in Columbia County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
FHP said the crash occurred around 6:30 a.m. on I-75 North.
Troopers added that the semi-truck was parked on the right shoulder of the highway, facing a “northerly direction” when the front of the pickup truck hit its left rear.
The driver and passenger of the pickup truck were each from Homestead, Florida, the agency said.
