Cantonment Driver Cited After Electrifying Crash
November 8, 2016
A Cantonment driver was cited after hitting a utility pole Monday afternoon.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 35-year old Timothy M. Wickam was westbound on 9 1/2 Mile Road at 2 p.m. when his 1994 Nissan left the roadway and struck a traffic sign and a power pole, causing multiple lines to fall and spark a grass fire. His vehicle then continued into an AT&T warning pole and multiple large bushes.
Wickham was transported by Escambia County EMS to Sacred Heart Hospital with minor injuries. He was also ticketed by the FHP for failure to maintain lane.

If people would just set their clocks forward 10 minutes it would give them sufficient time to get to their destinations on time, without endangering themselves and others! Please slow down people…life is short!
Amen, Terry!
People travel way too fast on that road all the time. Slow down people! There are children and pets living on that street, not to mention Pine Meadow Elementary School. I am including the parents of the students attending that school as well. I see you every morning doing at least 45 in that 35 mph zone, trying to get your children to school on time, as well as heading up the wrong side of the street to avoid the line of cars at the hwy 29 intersection, so that you can turn into the ‘car rider’ entrance to the school. One morning, there will be a head-on collision and I shudder to think of the cost. Avoiding a tardy slip is not worth it. Please. Please, slow down and be patient!
