One Injured In Wreck Involving County-Owned Pickup Truck
May 27, 2014
One person was injured in a collision involving a county-owned pickup Tuesday afternoon in Oak Grove.
The Florida Highway Patrol said an Escambia County Road Department Ford F250 driven by Anthony Delano of McDavid and a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Ronald Martin of Atmore were both northbound on County Road 99 just before 2 p.m.
Delano failed to see Martin passing as he attempted to turn on County Road 99A, according to the FHP. The front of Martin’s pickup struck the rear tail light and bumper of the county truck. Delano was transported by ambulance to Atmore Community Hospital with minor injuries; Martin was not injured.
Delano was cited for an improper left turn, according to the FHP.
The Walnut Hill Station of Escambia Fire Rescue and Atmore Ambulance also responded to the crash.

So oversight,
You’re saying the truck is better at passing than being passed?
That’s a strong Ford to not have ANY damage to its taillight if that is where it got struck
“196075″ I’ve seen this truck flying around North Escambia for quite a while, and it passed me on CR 164 early one morning in a “no passing zone” at a super high rate of speed. Don’t know if this is the same driver, but it sure is the same truck.
>>Hmmm…if the county truck pictured is at the scene of the accident, I see double yellow ‘no passing’ stripes on the road.
The driver of the county truck pulled onto the shoulder on CR 99A after the accident. The Silverado is pictured at about the point of impact on Hwy 99.
Hmmm…if the county truck pictured is at the scene of the accident, I see double yellow ‘no passing’ stripes on the road. Glad no one was seriously injured!
