This is the dumbest thing ever. Why in the world are people getting into wrecks on highway 97? You would think that more wrecks would happen on highway 29 but NOOOOOO. People just assume that since highway 97 is quiet and in the country so they can speed and drive crazy! People NEED to be more cautious.
Good job North Escambia.com. The pensacolan newspaper ran a story but did not have any pictures or names. your information is alwasys so much more better than their stuff.
