Default Village Airport Van in accident on Florida Turnpike near Wildwood.

The accident occurred shortly before 5 p.m.Sunday (?) on the Florida Turnpike at Exit 304 near Wildwood. Exit 304 connects with U.S. Hwy. 301 in Wildwood.
At least seven people were injured, according to initial reports from the scene.

I read the above on the online news, does anyone have any more information? It was in The Daily Sun too.

Another vehicle pushed the Villages Airport Van off the road according to today's picture and article in the Villages Daily Sun. Just minor injuries involved. No fault involved with the Villages Airport Van driver.

The van drivers seem to be very safe drivers on all the trips that I have been on. With that many trips between the villages and Orlando Florida every day seven days a week, it put the odds that it would happen eventually. And may very well happen again. May the odds be with us.
