Authorities Identify Victims of Fatal Crash Involving Fuel Truck
On September 21, 2018, there was a deadly car accident including a large fuel transportation truck on the Florida Turnpike near southwest 88th street. There were multiple fatalities involved and serious injuries. A hazmat crew even had to come out to clean up after the accident.
Accidents like these happen far too often in South Florida with the majority coming from Miami-Dade/Broward. Semi-trucks, in general, are much larger and carry much more weight on them than a regular vehicle and because of that when there is a collision it is much more likely to be fatal. This compounded, with the fact that some carry hazardous materials; such as the one in the article which was transporting gasoline can make an already dangerous situation much more dangerous.
