Wrong Way Driver Crashes Into Semi On I-10
November 1, 2017
A crash involving a wrong-way vehicle on I-10 left an Escambia County woman in critical condition early Wednesday morning.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 27-year old Chasidy Nichole Peace was traveling west in the eastbound lanes of I-10 for several miles when she collided with a semi-truck and trailer driven by 53-year old Mario Juan Vazquez Olive of Hileah, FL. Troopers said she drove under the trailer being pulled by Olive, causing semi and trailer to flip.
Troopers said Peace reportedly drove the wrong way on I-10 from Davis Highway to Mile Marker 3 near Beulah where the 4:01 a.m. accident occurred.
Peace was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital in critical condition. Olive was not injured.
Any charges against Peace are pending the outcome of the FHP investigation.

My spouse and I were traveling east bound on I 10 and a car going at a VERY HIGH 110mph or more was going back and forth left to right and I looked in my rear view mirror and saw the car at around 840 pm. I told my spouse we’re getting ready to get hit! At that point one more right to left she would’ve hit us! Instead the car lost control right behide us and did several 360’s and slammed into a metal guard rail facing east bound. I called 911 and talked to the HWP. This person was doing this on purpose to hurt someone and themselves! I only have to wonder if this is the same driver. When I called 911 after about five minutes NO ONE had called the accident in and I did see a white SUV pull over in front of the wrecked vehicle. I’ve never seen anything like this before a to hear she was driving the same way side to side made me wonder if this was ame driver? Just different location. We were headed back to Pensacola.
Hard to believe she got on the interstate from Davis going the wrong way. The way that is set up she had to go around that sharp curve then driving all the way to Pine Forest is pretty incredible that someone did not come up on her going the wrong way. I believe I had heard that Alcohol was not involved which is hard to believe since it states early morning hours.
They just had a story on here yesterday about wrong way drivers be careful read the signs it will save your life or someone else life
Mistakes happen, but there was plenty of time to reconsider and reverse
