The driver steered into the path of a motorcyclist, identified as a man in his mid-30s, who was riding southbound.
The two collided, and the motorcyclist later died at the hospital.
The SUV driver was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
Another Jacksonville motorcyclist died just the day before in a similar crash with an SUV.
This is the 91st traffic death in Duval County this year and the 23rd involving a motorcyclist.
