Cantonment Woman Killed In Highway 29, Quintette Road Crash With Semi Truck

October 27, 2021

A 48-year old Cantonment woman was killed in wreck with a semi truck Wednesday morning on Highway 29 at Quintette Road.

The Florida Highway Patrol said the woman was traveling west on Quintette Road and failed to stop, entering the path of a semi truck and trailer driven by a 71-year old Mississippi man about 9:15 a.m. Troopers said the semi driver attempted to avoid the collision and swerved.

The SUV was pushed along Highway 29 and began to overturn, partially ejecting the woman who was not wearing a seat belt, according to FHP.

The SUV came to rest on its roof partially on Highway 29 northbound following the 9:15 a.m. crash. The female was pronounced deceased on the scene by Escambia County EMS. The semi drier was not injured.

Highway 29 northbound was closed and traffic diverted onto Quintette Road following the crash.

FHP no longer releases the names of traffic crash victims.

    @ Consequences for actions and inaction
    It appears you hunt for fault.
    You appear to judge what you dont like what other people comment on.
    Get over it ..its called free speach..
    That door swings both ways not just your way.
    God bless …and all the doors you try to close

    @Wanda, not sure what your problem is here big girl, people are just suggesting seat belts save lives and it’s law.

    @David. I’ve seen you pass judgement far too many times on here, so don’t expect others to not do the same just because you knew this lady. May God rest her soul.

    @ Nancy…you are so very correct. @ David, prayers for the family of your friend that passes away from this horrible tragedy. To those “key board warriors “ that have nothing better to do than shame a person or call them names…SHAME ON YOU! A young woman lost their life and an innocent person has to live with what happened yesterday morning for the rest of their life. My prayers are with BOTH families and family of friends…I’m even going to pray for you “hateful” people…it’s real easy to sit behind a screen and cast judgement of others. Go ahead, spew your hatred at what ive said, I’m good with that and expect it…you won’t gain a response for me as I say how I feel from the beginning.

    She didn’t stop at the stop sign and no one will know why. She could have been new to the area or many reasons she didn’t stop. She didn’t wear her seat belt and no one knows why. Only she does and she can’t state her reason.

    @ wise years – nothing wrong with your comment or actually it’s a suggestion.

    @ Wanda – One thing for sure, you are not about the woman and the other driver. No mention of them at all. Then maybe you are. I don’t really care for your snarky comments. SNARKY – usually out of irritation and mostly cranky.

    Prayers for Mrs ________’s family and all the friends who knew her. Also for the truck driver that has to live each day envisioning the accident.

    Sorry @ Bill that you had to witness this.

    @David, I am so sorry you lost your friend. All of us that drive have most likely had a close call on the road being our fault or someone else, but we’re lucky and survived. We all need to just pray for both families as they deal with their loss. Rest in peace sweet lady.

    Why is it on here every time a story is posted people get into a correction mode detracting from the story?

    This is all opinion and simple comments

    Trying to understand this “me” opinion is more relevant and important issue?

    No!
    This story is about a nice lady who lost her life and this forum seems to be the gathering place for people to condemn and try to belittle each other.

    In the end, it dont matter what we say.
    This was my dear friend, and she dont deserve your argumentative agenda.
    No one does.

  8. Wanda on October 28th, 2021 9:07 am

    @ JK
    I really dont care what you think or presume
    This story is NOT ABOUT YOU- trying to play your hand at correcting me or anyone else
    FAIL! Also
    You sad small person
    Praying for a lot of self adorning people today.

    You all talk about wearing seatbelts. I wonder why people can’t stop at a stop sign.

  10. Jk on October 28th, 2021 7:18 am

    @wanda …. I didn’t feel the comment posted by Wise deserved name calling. Not one person in this comment feed judged the driver who Lost her life yet you, in your angry frame of mind belittled someone who shares the same opinion as others…use the seatbelt! And when it’s noticed by our law enforcers, stop the car and give a ticket! Perhaps have unannounced “click it or ticket” events. But until then, maybe you should listen to what you are saying before you actually speak or posts comments.

    To Wise,

    Local law enforcement does. Stop blaming others and recognize that people still choose to do what they want, regardless. Murder, theft, rape, speeding, DUI, texting and driving, it’s all against the law but people choose to do what they want. It’s their choice and when they get caught, there are consequences. Unfortunately, no community is immune to crime and no community can place a cop on every corner.

    This tragedy may or may not have been avoided by the use of a seatbelt. Maybe it was malfunctioning or it was briefly taken off while reaching for something dropped on the floor. We don’t know but stop trying to point the finger.

  12. Linda on October 27th, 2021 10:45 pm

    So sorry for your loss!

  13. Wanda on October 27th, 2021 10:30 pm

    @wise years …”When will FHP and other law enforcement start enforcing seat belt laws?”?
    What an obtuse failed comment.
    You have no idea what you are talking about.
    You want a LEO in each car to play copilot?
    Write a letter to Tallahassee and recommend just that.
    In the meantime..worry about you as YOU are the only one that can control just what you want.
    Dont judge this poor lady either you sad little man

    Quintette and Hwy 29 is a dangerous intersection and needs Speed Bumps/Red flashing lights to remind drivers to slow down and prepare to STOP before they get close to Hwy 29. Prayer for the ladies family and for the man involved in the accident.

  15. shirley on October 27th, 2021 8:25 pm

    PLEASE PRAY THAT GOD WILL EASE THIS DRIVERS PAIN BECAUSE HE WILL BE LIVING WITH THIS FOR A WHILE

  16. wise years on October 27th, 2021 7:41 pm

    When will FHP and other law enforcement start enforcing seat belt laws?

  17. Aileen cork on October 27th, 2021 6:15 pm

    Praying for all that was involved my son will not start the car if ever one don’t fasten their seatbelts

  18. Lu on October 27th, 2021 4:50 pm

    While I am sorry for her family’s loss, I am also sorry for the truck driver who didn’t anticipate this in his workday.
    Respect trucks and Stop means STOP!

  19. Paul on October 27th, 2021 2:56 pm

    I can’t understand why anybody can drive without a seatbelt.
    It seems like once a week someone dies from Not wearing one.

  20. Bill on October 27th, 2021 1:50 pm

    Folks I came up on this accident as the vehicle was coming to a rest, my sincere prayers and condolences to the deceased and prayers for the other driver involved. PLEASE WEAR YOUR SEATBELTS
