Vehicle Accidents on Florida’s Turnpike
Florida’s Turnpike (SR-91) is a critical transportation route that serves residents and travelers alike, spanning numerous counties, including Osceola. Accidents on this roadway are often caused by common factors such as speeding, distracted driving, and vehicle malfunction. In rural areas like Kenansville, reduced visibility and long stretches of uninterrupted highway can contribute to driver fatigue, increasing the likelihood of crashes.
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) regularly emphasizes the importance of safe driving practices, especially on high-speed routes like the turnpike. Efforts to reduce accidents include increased patrol presence and educational campaigns to promote awareness among drivers.
