Serious Accident in Baker County, Florida Results in Two Deaths and Two Serious Injuries
A vehicle with four occupants drove off of the road on County Road 125 in Baker County, Florida and run into a tree killing two and seriously injuring the other two, including a four year old, according to an article on News4Jax.com. The crash is being investigated by Florida Highway Patrol traffic homicide detectives, but there is no indication yet as to why the car left the road and why the driver was not able to get the vehicle back on the road.
We have written before about the percentage of serious accidents that occur in rural areas as opposed to busier and more populated areas, contrary to what many people might think. This is due to several factors including the fact that drivers lose focus on less crowded rural roads and the roads themselves are often narrower without a shoulder making it easier for a crash like this to occur.
