ODESSA, Fla. — Two drivers were taken to the hospital after a Range Rover crashed into a van in Odessa on Wednesday.

The Florida Highway Patrol said around 3:56 p.m., the Range Rover was traveling west on the private drive of 13589 SR-54, approaching Gunn Highway. At the intersection, the Range Rover then failed to yield while continuing across to Long Spur and crossed into the path of a Ford van traveling south.

The two vehicles collided, and the van came to a rest on the road. The Range Rover, however, struck a rock wall and a tree, which caused it to rotate and overturn. It finally collided with apartment air conditioning units at 1470 Long Spur.

Both drivers were minorly injured and taken to local hospitals.

“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.
