December 22, 2020
Two people were injured when a SUV crashed into a septic tank pump truck Monday on Pine Forest Road.
The Florida Highway Patrol said the 34-year male drive of a SUV was traveling south on Pine Forest Road approaching Graham Road when he veered into the northbound lane. He crashed nearly head-on into a septic truck driven by a 62-year old man from Pensacola.
The SUV driver was listed in critical condition by the FHP. The truck driver had to be cut from the tanker by firefighters; he was transported to an area hospital in serious condition.
No names were released. The crash closed Pine Forest Road for the FHP investigation.

Never know what caused this, driver could have been on the phone, lack of sleep, a mechanical issue with vehicle or even intentional or a medical condition, maybe let FHP do the investigation. They have already obtained phone records which will tell either way.
To the above comments, You shouldn’t be so quick to judge. This is my cousin and he is not expected to survive. I highly doubt he was txting at 6am going to work. I hope this never happens to any of y’all’s loved ones. And if I did I wouldn’t be making accusations that your loved one was texting? Come on people
Folks, put the phone down when you’re driving.
$100 to $1 SUV was texting.
I travel that part of Pine Forest Road every day and idiots are swerving over both lines of the road. If only a vaccine for texting and driving were invented
