TAMPA — New technology could thwart wrong-way crashes State transportation officials are testing strategies for reducing wrong-way automobile crashes and may bring the preventive measures to the Tampa Bay area, where four of the collisions have killed 10 people this year. Pilot programs under way along Interstate 10 in Tallahassee and on Florida’s Turnpike in South Florida could help prevent tragedies such as Sunday morning’s crash, in which a woman driving a four-door Honda south in the northbound lanes of Interstate 275 smashed into a tanker truck. Three people in the car died. All four of the wrong-way crashes have happened on the same stretch of Interstate 275 since February. tbo/news/education/technology-may-help-slow-rise-of-wrong-way-driving-deaths-20140908/
