A Corvette driver was ejected and killed when his car crashed into a tree off the Don Shula Exppressway in Miami-Dade Friday, officials said.
The Corvette was heading south on the Expressway at the exit ramp to eastbound Killian Drive when the driver lost control and collided with a barrier wall, Florida Highway Patrol officials said.
The car then went over a guardrail and onto a grass embankment where it crashed into a palm tree.
The man who was driving and the only occupant of the Corvette was ejected and killed at the scene, FHP officials said. His identity hasn't been released.
