Man Killed in Limo Crash in Cape May County

A limousine crossed over the center line of Route 49, causing a crash that flipped over a SUV and killed its driver.

Mario Carlo Jr. was killed when his 2004 Honda CR-V spun out and flipped on Route 49 near 2nd Avenue in Tuckahoe, Cape May County around 12:45 p.m. -- moments after a Mercedes Sprinter Limousine bus crossed the center line of the roadway and struck the man's vehicle, according to police.

The driver of a navy blue 2004 Honda CR-V, which was heading westbound, tried to exit the roadway once the eastbound  limo started traveling towards oncoming traffic, according to authorities.

The limo struck the driver's side of the CR-V, causing both vehicles to spin out and overturning the SUV, authorities said.

Medics transported the limo driver, who suffered minor injuries, to Shore Memorial Hospital.
