Lutz, FL—Authorities from the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) cited Rep. Kevin Ambler after a two-vehicle crash left him and an SUV driver injured. The accident occurred in Hillsborough County Saturday afternoon, August 14, 2010, according to information provided by ABC Action News.
Reports indicated Ambler, a Republican State Representative and Florida Senate candidate, was driving a rented Mercedes around 12:30 p.m. when the collision occurred. As Ambler was turning into the entrance of Cheval, his vehicle reportedly struck a Toyota 4Runner sport utility vehicle.

Five of those citations were apparently issued within the last five years. However, adjudication was withheld on all but two of the cases.
