'Didn't Look Good At All': 2 Women Dead In Westbound I-195 Ramp Crash

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Two women were killed in an early-morning crash on a Julia Tuttle Causeway ramp.

The Florida Highway Patrol said a woman driving a silver Nissan sedan lost control while negotiating a right turn on the entrance ramp to northbound I-95 from westbound I-195/Julia Tuttle Causeway.

The car slammed in a tree and a concrete barrier wall.

Moments later, Kirk Francis encountered the accident scene.

"I was heading home and I came around the corner, I passed it at first, I saw the car and I was like 'wait a minute, that don't look right,'" he said.

Francis said he has to do something.

"So I actually backed up and when I came back I saw there were two young ladies inside and it didn't look good, it didn't look good at all," he said. "I called 911 to come."

The driver died on the scene.

Her passenger was taken to the Ryder Trauma Center where she later died.

FHP said the driver died on the scene. Her passenger was rushed to the Jackson Memorial Hospital where she later died.

Loved ones and close friends were consoled at the scene and later at the Ryder Trauma Center, where no one wanted to talk about the tragedy.

"I guess just like you never know. I guess they were headed home, just like myself, and chances are you might not even make it home," Francis said.

The two women have not been identified.

The ramp to northbound I-95 was shut down for several hours during the accident investigation.

The cause of the crash is still unknown, but FHP said it's looking at all possibilities.
