The driver of a 2006 Ford Mustang died late Monday after the vehicle struck a tractor-trailer head-on, Hillsborough County deputies say.
The Ford, driven by 54-year-old Illie Steve Fuller of Plant City, was heading west on Lithia-Pinecrest Road near George Smith Road about 11:37 p.m. when it drifted right and the driver lost control, according to a sheriff's office news release.
The Ford crossed the center line and struck a 2000 Freightliner tractor-trailer driven by Rodrigo Rodriguez, 31.
Fuller, who wasn't wearing a seat belt, died at the scene.
An investigation is ongoing.
