FLA. — A construction worker died early Saturday morning, after a truck hit road maintenance vehicles on Interstate 75, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The fatal crash was at mile marker 49 on I-75 just before 2 a.m. when a truck towing a boat trailer failed to slow down for construction vehicles, FHP said. Troopers aid the construction crew was painting divider lines on the road and right shoulder. A Scorpion Road Construction Crash Truck was following the line-painting vehicle to provide protection for the work zone, FHP wrote.

The truck driver failed to yield to the slower-moving construction vehicles, striking the rear of the crash truck, which caused the Scorpion truck to hit the line-painting vehicle ahead of it, FHP said.
The 64-year-old driver of the Scorpion truck died. The Florida Highway Patrol continues to investigate the crash.
