The driver of a Honda Passport escaped serious injury in a crash with an semi-truck Monday morning in Walnut Hill.

The driver was northbound on Highway 97 at Pelt Road when she apparently rear-ended the semi, which was making a left-hand  turn onto Pelt Road. The Passport continued north, leaving the roadway and striking mailboxes and a fence, stopping short of a house. The semi came to a stop on Pelt Road.

The Passport driver was transported to Atmore Community Hospital with injuries that were not considered severe. The semi driver was not injured.

The accident is under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol. Further details have not been released.
