Driver fails to yield, causing injury crash in Homestead
HOMESTEAD, FL – A Mercedes driver failed to yield the right of way on eastbound SW 256th Street and hit a Toyota going on Krome Avenue South, injuring both drivers and two toddlers.
This collision happened Sunday, and the impact had ejected the two young children from the Toyota, NBC Miami reports. The drivers sustained serious wounds, while the toddlers were flown via a medical helicopter to Kendall Regional in critical condition.
