Cantonment Woman Seriously Injured After Hitting School Bus Head On
July 1, 2016
A Cantonment woman was critically injured when drove her car head-on into a school bus Thursday afternoon.
The Florida Highway Patrol said 72-year old Carolyn Robertson was traveling west on Ten Mile Road at Ashton Brosnaham Road when she drove her 2003 Toyota directly into the front of an Escambia County School District bus that was stopped within a left turn lane.
Robertson was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital in serious condition. Her 11-year old passenger suffered minor injuries.
The driver of the bus, 48-year old Charmaine Mixon of Pensacola, and two adult passengers were not injured. There were no children on the bus at the time of the crash.
Any charges in the crash are pending the outcome of an ongoing FHP investigation.

Carolyn is at home tonight and her son is staying with her for a few days. She is still hurting from the chest compressions administered by an Angel in the Midst, a cardiologist nurse from Sacred Heart just happened to be close by when the accident happened … I believe that this special person saved her life! She visited Carolyn at the hospital and told her that she did not have a pulse when she arrived. Carolyn had blacked out and doesn’t remember much. Her airbag deployed so this has probably added to her pain. Her 11 year old granddaughter was in the backseat at the time of the accident. She had fallen asleep so she didn’t know what happened … and she was not injured with the exception of a little bruising and soreness.
So many miracles … God was present in a big way!! Thank you to the nurse who saved my friend / neighbor’s life!
