Last Saturday morning dec. 22 around 8:00 AM thirty miles south on the fl turnpike there was at least a 15 mile back up. Shut off the engine and waited 55 minutes to start crawling again. When we got up to the accident there at least two cars (tow trucks were there hauling others away it looked like) but at least two of them were really in bad shape. One of them was our village airport shuttle with the yellow detail. We never saw ambulances but we were so far back we figured they must have had medi copters.. Hope everyone was ok. We also were on the way to MCO and just made our flight. Was this in our paper? Anyone hear about it?

Didn't see anything about it.

However, as you may know by now, that's not entirely surprising.

I am personally glad that it does not seem to have involved The Villages Transportation's shuttle service.

If you want to know information like this, just call The Village Sun. Ask for the editors office.

That's awful. I use the Villages Van Service several times a year because the Villages Shuttle Service schedule doesn't coincide with my flight schedule. Has anyone heard the extent of injuries?
