HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla. — A motorcyclist was killed in a Hernando County crash on Saturday after running a red light, authorities said.

A 21-year-old Spring Hill man was riding a Honda motorcycle westbound on Spring Hill Drive at about 6:38 p.m.

A Hyundai Santa Fe, driven by a 43-year-old Spring Hill woman, was traveling southbound on Pinehurst Drive.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, at the intersection, the motorcyclist did not stop for a red light and collided with the Santa Fe.

The motorcyclist was pronounced dead at the scene.

The woman suffered minor injuries.

“You know, it might just be time we take a look if HOAs are really even necessary.
Maybe we should just do away with homeowner associations as a whole.”

South Florida lawmaker Rep. Juan Carlos Porras (R-Miami) says it may be time to do away with homeowners associations altogether, as more Floridians speak out about rising fees, costly lawsuits, and even arrests tied to HOA disputes. He said this week that he is considering filing legislation in the next session that would abolish HOAs statewide.
