Fatal Scooter Collision Closes Port St. Lucie Intersection

Two separate serious traffic incidents occurred recently in the southeastern United States. In Charleston, South Carolina, a portion of SC Highway 61 was closed following a nighttime collision involving a pedestrian, with police advising drivers to seek alternate routes due to lane closures. In Port St. Lucie, Florida, a 49-year-old man died after his scooter was struck by a vehicle at the intersection of SE Crosstown Parkway and SE Sandia Drive. The crash, which happened early on October 31, 2025, led to the closure of the intersection as police investigated the circumstances. Authorities in Port St. Lucie are seeking witnesses and information from the public to aid their investigation, urging anyone with details to contact local law enforcement. Motorists in both areas are advised to expect delays and use alternate routes while investigations and road closures persist.
