Friends visiting from St Pete witnessed the aftermath of what appeared to be a head on collision on Morse Blvd and Colony Plaza.

Wed.
Aforementioned accident that took out the Hemingway gate and was probably responsiible the minor blackout some us experienced.
I missed Bunco

Fri.
On the way to mah jong was delayed because of a major accident on the 466 and Rolling Acres Rd. Disabled vehicles on 3 of the 4 corners.

Sat./Sun.
Taking out of the pumping station on Odel & Buena Vista.

I'm starting to feel like we're all in a bad chase movie.

Just hope no one was seriously injured in last night's acciddent."

Since then 2 more incidents reported on these threads.


(1) To me this could be considered "a lot" for such a short period of time.

(2) As to the reporting in the Sun my opinion is that they are doing the community a disservice by not reporting these incidents, with or without the gory datails, with the warning to please be extra careful out there.

(3) Apparently we have been invaded by a hoard of the worst drivers in the history of the world.

(1) I bet even Sister Elizabeth would agree that's a lot!

(2) :agree:

(3) I would :1rotfl: if it weren't so sad.

Chalk up one more. Yesterday, Thursday afternoon, at the Buena Vista/El Camino roundabout.

Oh no!
 
Does anyone know whether anyone was hurt, and what caused the accident?
