ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- According to witnesses, a 23-year-old woman driving a BMW was speeding and swerving in and out of traffic early Thursday morning and lost control then crashed into two trees.

"It was a BMW. It was split, literally, in two separate halves. Clearly indicative of speed [and] possibly some horseplay going on," said Corporal Kris Neutzling, Florida Highway Patrol.

The impact of the crash that happened on Dr. Phillips Boulevard and Conroy-Windemere Road (see map) caused her BMW to split in two, killing Jessica Hazelrigg instantly.

Hazelrigg's boyfriend, who was driving a separate car, witnessed the crash. Investigators say he was speeding behind her in his Bentley.

"It scares me a lot. It scares me a lot," said Tucker Pryor, the victim's friend." A lot of younger people use it to race, because it’s a straight shot."

Friends and family of Jessica Hazelrigg were at the crash site Thursday afternoon to pay their respects.

Hazelrigg attended Florida State University and graduated from Olympia High School.

"It's just a shock. She was such a good person," said Pryor.

Jessica Hazelrigg's crash marks the seventh at the intersection of Conroy-Windermere Road and Dr. Phillips Boulevard since January. Last week, a man crashed into a wall after leaving a bar across the street and, last year, a girl crashed into a tree at the same intersection.

"You can see people going high-speed all the time," said resident Peter Sushinsky.

"You hear a lot of cars going by really fast," said another resident, Simon Sutherland.

Troopers are interviewing her boyfriend to find out if he had any involvement in the crash. If they do determine he was involved, he could face charges.
