SARASOTA COUNTY, Fla. — Deputies are investigating after a three-vehicle crash involving a school bus injured two drivers in Sarasota County Friday morning.

The Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office said around 7 a.m., a Ford Escape and Honda Civic collided at Beneva Road and Sarasota Square Boulevard.

The collision caused the Civic to slide into the side of the school bus, which was stopped at the intersection.

Two of the drivers suffered minor injuries, but none of the 15 students on the bus were injured. While portions of the road were closed during the investigation, they have since reopened.

“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.
