FHP Pursuit Ends in Rollover Crash at NW 154th St On-Ramp, Miami Lakes, Early Monday Oct. 12
Florida Highway Patrol troopers pursued a silver BMW that fled a speeding traffic stop on the southbound Palmetto Expressway (SR 826) near Northwest 47th Avenue just before 4:15 a.m. Monday in Miami Lakes. The driver failed to negotiate the curve at the NW 154th Street exit, veered off the highway into an embankment, and overturned; a marked FHP cruiser also drove down the embankment and collided with the BMW. Three occupants of the BMW were transported to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. The southbound NW 154th Street on-ramp from Miami Lakes Drive remained closed for hours while the off-ramp reopened shortly after. Charges against the driver are pending.
