    Neither of the people involved in the crash had to “be cut” from their vehicles.

    Maybe Paul Alexander didn’t know that Olive Road intersects with Scenic Highway. I know when Olive is mentioned alot of ppl think about Olive at Davis or Olive at Old Palafox. Some ppl aren’t familiar with that area.

    This hopes they are all doing ok tonight.
    More & more drivers are being hit head on. We all know what we are thinking.
    But I write this as someone who hasn’t used the horn more than ten times in my driving life and that’s a long time.
    Recently I tried my horn for the fun of it and found out it did not work. Took it to have it fixed that week, needed a fuse. We all need to watch for that car hugging the shoulder or crossing the center line. Not a whole lot of time to react, but we might get lucky if we can get their attention.

    Not sure of alot of the details. They are in critical care not intensive care. Buck has a shattered leg that will be operated on in the morning. Linda has 4 broke ribs, punctured lung. They were hit head on and both had to be cut from the car. The girl that hit them had a suspended license. They are At sacred Heart Hospital and They are my uncles cousins. So please be praying for them

    I came by there just after it happened and yes it was at the Scenic Hwy and and Olive Rd intersection. It is by the bay just as William said. Olive Rd going east ends at Scenic Hwy and Olive ends at Old Palafox on the western end. This has nothing to do with Scenic Hwy across from Dairy Queen.

    >Scenic and Olive ????

    Don’t understand the question? It was Scenic and East Olive, right by the bay.
