According to officials with the Florida Highway Patrol, the incident took place on Saturday, February 27, 2021 between 7:00 a.m. and 7:15 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) along Interstate 4 near McIntosh Road in the Plant City area. A Road Ranger’s official work vehicle was parked in the outside lane of Interstate 4 with, according to FHP officials, all caution lights, arrow board, and other safety beacons activated. At the same time, a man 42 years of age was driving a pickup truck west on I-4 and attempted to pass another pickup truck. After changing lanes, he collided with the rear of the Road Ranger truck, sending the Road Ranger Truck careening off the road.
