Driver Swerves To Avoid Skeleton On Highway 29, Crashes Into Wooded Area
October 4, 2024
A driver on Highway 29 in Cantonment swerved to avoid a skeleton on Highway 29 and crashed into a wooded area Friday morning.
The woman was southbound on Highway 29 near Success Drive just before 7 a.m. when she swerved to miss another vehicle that had swerved to avoid an object that fell out of the back of a truck. She lost control on the wet roadway, crossed over both northbound lanes and ran into nearby woods. She was transported by Escambia County EMS to Sacred Heart Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The object drivers avoided turned out to be part of a skeleton — the leg bones no longer connected to the rest of the 12-foot Halloween yard decoration.
We are told that the driver of the truck stopped to render assistance.
The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating.

I was traveling on I65 north yesterday and saw an SUV with a kayak strapped to the top with only 1 strap across the middle. The kayak was completely perpendicular to the SUV and appeared as if it was about to come loose. Nevermind it extended about 2 feet out from each side of the SUV. Some people need a book, “Tying Down Stuff for Dummies.”
If the other’s cared enough to stop!!
