A 48-year-old man from Puerto Rico died in a car crash on northbound Interstate 95 north of Palm Coast Parkway on Feb. 17.
The man was riding in a pickup truck driven by a 55-year-old man, also from Puerto Rico, at 8:59 p.m. when the driver suddenly switched lanes from the center lane to the outside lane, hitting the left rear side of an SUV, according to a report from the Florida Highway Patrol.
The pickup left the roadway with the SUV, which was driven by a 49-year-old Jacksonville man.
Both cars overturned onto the grass shoulder on the east side of the road and came to rest on their passenger sides.
