Crash With Two Boulders Claims Life In Escambia County
January 19, 2020
A young woman lost her life after striking two boulders Saturday in Escambia County.
The Florida Highway Patrol said 19-year old Allanah Sharee Simmons of Milton was traveling east on Detroit Boulevard about a half mile east of Pine Forest Road. Troopers said her 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer left the roadway about 11:40 a.m. during “adverse conditions” and struck a large boulder along the shoulder of the roadway at a business entrance. The vehicle began to spin around and became wedged between the first boulder and a second boulder on the shoulder.
Simmons was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital where she passed away from her injuries at 12:32 p.m.

I RAN INTO A DITCH THE OTHER DAY. I WONDER IF I SHOULD SUE
At least one of the four boulders is awfully close to the road. Very dangerous and probably illegal. The boulders appear to have tremendous weight. Poor girl, poor family, happy lawyers.
This business has 4 very large rocks or boulders as some refer to them on the edges of the driveway due to semis going in and out of the driveway. They help protect the fencing electrical operation and allow the drivers to see the edges so they don’t drive off into the drainage ditch when turning off of Detroit, which is not very wide. The huge ones that were hit during this accident are quite a ways off of the main road and are probably 4 feet tall and wider than that. They are BIG. So sorry that this young woman passed away.
Our Heartfelt condolences to the entire Family Our prayers are with you Minister Simmons .
Bless her soul Father, keep the family in your care, in Jesus’s name…amen.
A boulder? we have boulders in escambia county florida?
Well, I be dang! They are boulders! I’ll go back to sleep now!
I believe that should be bollards not boulders. Unless they have some fancy landscaping. Prayers for the young lady and her family.
