PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — A Holiday man who suffered a medical emergency while driving on June 28 was killed after he crashed into a parked car and a tree, authorities said.
A Nissan Pathfinder, driven by the 57-year-old victim, was traveling westbound on Garfield Drive when the driver suffered the medical condition at about 9:02 p.m., according to a Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) report.
The man lost control of the vehicle and traveled across the roadway and struck several trash cans before colliding with an unoccupied Honda Civic on Garfield Drive.
The Pathfinder continued, striking struck a tree, then a concrete residential porch before coming to final rest.
He was taken to an area hospital where he died, the report stated.
“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.
