DUI driver who killed Lake Placid teen drove 5x the legal limit

HIGHLANDS COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — A man has been charged with DUI manslaughter after a 16-year-old girl was killed in a head-on collision, the Florida Highway Patrol said. At around 4 p.m. on May 22, a Ford F350, driven by 44-year-old Thomas Raulerson, was traveling the wrong way on U.S.-98, going north in the southbound lane, in a construction zone. A second vehicle, a Honda Civic, was traveling south on the southbound lane, driving behind an SUV. The driver of the SUV, approaching the vehicle going the wrong direction, braked and steered right, colliding with a construction barrel on the side of the road. The 16-year-old girl driving the Honda Civic braked as the SUV went off the road, and was hit head-on by the Ford F350. She was pronounced dead on the scene. Raulerson's blood alcohol concentration level was .445, which is over five times the legal limit. He was transported to a local hospital with serious injuries before being arrested and charged on May 30. He was charged with two counts of DUI property damage and DUI manslaughter.
