Five people were killed during a collision in Florida, and six were killed in California.
In Tampa, F.L., a Ford Expedition SUV moving south on northbound Interstate 275 hit a Hyundai Sonata head on around 2 a.m., killing the SUV driver and all four people in the vehicle traveling in the correction direction, according to a Florida Highway Patrol news release.
