CLEARWATER, Fla. — Clearwater Police Department (CPD) responded to multiple 911 calls reporting an electric moped crash on U.S. 19, south of Seville Boulevard.
Police said the moped crashed into the retaining wall of the highway, causing the rider to be thrown over it onto the access road below.
CPD said the rider was taken to the Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital as a trauma alert with potentially life-threatening injuries.
The southbound lane of U.S. 19 and one lane of the access road below are closed for the investigation.
“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.
