The FHP said the man was driving a van and failed to stop when vehicles came to a stop in front of him due to traffic congestion. The front of the van collided with the back of the trailer, an FHP crash report stated.
The van driver, who was not wearing a seat belt, was pronounced dead at the scene, according to troopers.
The big rig driver, a 30-year-old Lauderhill man, and his passenger, a 73-year-old West Palm Beach man, were not injured, the FHP said.
