It happened on Pine Forest Road just north of West Roberts Road. The driver, described as an older female, crashed into a Mercedes 300 SD parked in the driveway of the home. Her injuries were not believed to be severe.

The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating.

The house was not damaged. The Merecdes was for sale.

    To hit a PARKED car at 60mph you were 1. asleep at the when or 2. medical condition made you pass out or 3. You passed out drunk 4. A child ran out in front of you

    @ Reader
    Pull up the intersection on maps, then draw a straight line from the stop sign south of the house to where the contact was made. It is not rocket science, and it is not the fault of the intersection, which many keep blaming. The problem is people are not paying attention to the road. We are all guilty of being distracted at one point or another, adjusting the radio, talking to the person next to us, looking at the GPS, or just looking at something on the side of the road, fortunately most get away with it.
    My advice is, if you are offended by what people post on open forums then don’t read open forums.

    @ Rasheed Jackson
    Do the county a favor and call the FHP to halt the investigation.
    You have it all figured out.

    This forum has hundreds of investigators that could potentially save the county and the state millions on investigations AS YOURSELF

    Grow up!

    It is hard to see that little dog leg in the road when you are texting or looking at your phone. It appears the person never made an attempt to stay on the road after leaving the intersection. If it were my house, I would move before someone gets hurt.

    They could have just reported it stolen and then driven off in a creek.

    @yep about truth, and yes that stupid pool has gotten real deep.

    Anyone actually surprised?

    @Gene, that house has been hit enough times that it needs to have uninsured motorist insurance taken out on it now! Like the others have said, that intersection has been pretty well stupid-proofed but the stupid pool gets deeper and deeper!!

    I guess the insurance company will be the new buyer for the old Mercedes that was being listed “for sale”.

    I do believe that “For Sale” Mercedes just got “sold” to that womans insurance company, without a doubt!

    They’ve made that intersection as stupid proof as possible. Some people just can’t help themselves.

    Wow. I can’t believe that Kia held up better than that old big body Benz.

  14. Gene on January 3rd, 2021 5:17 pm

    I believe that’s the house that got rammed into several years ago. I don’t believe I would want to live there. To many people don’t stop at stop signs.
