A Lady Lake woman was transported by ambulance from the scene of a three-car crash Tuesday morning on U.S. Hwy. 27/441.
Deborah Grace Woods, 60, had been at the wheel of a 2012 Hyundai Elantra at 8:36 a.m. that was stopped in traffic that had been backed up on U.S. Hwy. 27/441 near its intersection with Lady Lake Boulevard. Her car was rear-ended by a 2012 Chevy Cruze driven by 19-year-old McKenzie Leigh Odum of Fruitland Park, according to an accident report from the Lady Lake Police Department. The force of the collision pushed Woods’ vehicle into the rear end of a 2016 Nissan Pathfinder driven by 38-year-old Cheryl Ann Falk of Boca Raton.
Odum told police she did not see the vehicles were stopped in traffic. She was ticketed on a charge of following too closely.
Woods was transported by Lake EMS to a local hospital. Her vehicle sustained significant damage and was towed from the scene.
