A Lake City driver failed to yield and hit a Columbia County Sherriff’s Office (CCSO) patrol vehicle along US Highway 90 on Saturday evening.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) release, a 29-year-old male CCSO deputy was driving a marked patrol vehicle east on US 90 around 8:30 p.m. when he approached the intersection at SW Bascom Norris Drive.

A 31-year-old female driving a pickup was stopped on US 90 waiting to make a southbound left turn onto SW Bascom Norris Drive and failed to yield the right of way to US 90 eastbound traffic. She proceeded into the intersection and the front of her pickup stuck on the driver’s side of the CCSO patrol SUV.

Both drivers were treated for minor injuries, according to the FHP.
