A witness told police that Costa had a flashing yellow light while eastbound traffic on County Road 466A had a steady green light.
Costa turned in front of a gray 2014 Ford Edge driven by 82-year-old Elizabeth Keen Meyer of the Village of Fenney, who had been eastbound. The front of Meyer’s vehicle struck Costa’s vehicle which rotated and was hit by a white 2020 Chevy Silverado pickup driven by 17-year-old Chris Ivan Guerrero-Ortega of Summerfield.
The other two drivers escaped injury. All three vehicles were towed from the scene. No tickets were issued.

And???? Somebody with less than adequate driving skills turned right in front of an oncoming vehicle at an intersection with absolutely no visibility problems. I hope everyone is OK, but let's not turn this into a soapbox to advocate for dedicated red turn arrows at every intersection. Some intersections need it, some don't
