Two Killed, Including 18-Year Old, In Highway 29 Wrong-Way Driver Crash
March 17, 2023
Two people were killed in a fiery wrong way driver crash on Highway 29 early Friday morning.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a white Chevrolet sedan was traveling southbound in the northbound lanes of Highway 29 just south of Quintette Road at 12:41 a.m.
A burgundy Nissan SUV driven by an 18-year old female from Molino was northbound at the time, and the vehicles collided head-on.
The Chevrolet sedan caught fire with the driver still inside. Troopers said the sedan driver has not yet been identified.
Both drivers were pronounced deceased at the scene.
The 18-year old SUV driver was a Northview High School senior.
The FHP investigation is continuing.

So sad prayers for the families
This is terrible. Making it worse is not knowing how and why a vehicle was traveling south in the northbound at those kind of speeds. Is FHP working on that?

As a former teacher and coach I’ve experienced the loss of a student to an automobile accident. This will be a tough return for the Northview staff and students. The day after the accident while at Century High School in my class the desk was empty and none of the students knew what to say. Grieving will be a huge pain for all the teachers, students, and support personnel.
Prayers are needed for all. Such a tragedy for the family keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
