According to reports from the Florida Highway Patrol, 58-year-old Diane A. Caraker was traveling northbound on I-275 when she collided with the rear-end of a 2002 Honda motorcycle driven by a 56-year-old man. The motorcycle was then propelled forward into a 2002 Nissan Rogue. The motorcyclist was seriously hurt in the crash, suffering life-threatening injuries. There is no word on whether the other two motorists were hurt. The northbound lanes remained closed while police worked at the scene.

The Florida Highway Patrol is still investigating the crash and charges are pending at this time.

Our thoughts go out to the injured victim in this crash in St. Petersburg.

Each year, about 400,000 reportable accidents will occur in our state. Rear-end collisions are among the most common types of crashes in our state. A driver who causes a rear-end collision will usually be at fault and responsible for any injuries suffered by other motorists or passengers as a result of the crash. If you or a loved one have been hurt in a Florida car accident, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries, including payment for your pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills.
