A driver was killed in a fatal collision early Saturday morning on the Florida Turnpike, according to officials.
Florida Highway Patrol said that a box truck was disabled on the roadway, blocking a travel lane, when an oncoming semi-truck crashed into it.
The collision caused the semi-truck to "jackknife," which happens when the semi-truck trailer skids towards the truck cab at a 90-degree angle.
The driver of the semi-truck was pronounced dead on the scene as a result of the injuries sustained, according to FHP.
