The St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office said the 17-year-old driver was not driving recklessly, and speed and impairment was not a factor in the crash.
They also said the timing of the dirt bike’s entry into the road “provided little opportunity to avoid the crash.”
SJSO said the investigation is now closed and “Our thoughts remain with the families and all those affected by this tragic incident.”
