HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla. — A Webster man was killed in a Hernando County crash on Saturday after he lost control of the truck he was driving, the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) said.
At about 5:10 a.m., the 23-year-old victim was driving a Ford Ranger pickup truck northbound on U.S. Highway 301 at a “high rate of speed,” according to an FHP report.
North of Ranchette Boulevard, the driver lost control of the vehicle.
The truck left the roadway and struck a tree along the west shoulder of the highway.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene.
“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.
