Orange Park ,FL :18- Years old driver minoly injured after crash and his car airborne on Saturday afternoon ,September 5th 2015
An 18-year-old who had just dropped off pizza at a local business and was heading south on Blanding Boulevard on Saturday afternoon was suddenly confronted by a car turning left into his path.
"I had the right of way. He was trying to turn, and I tried to swerve out the way," Kyle Hinkle said. "He still hit me when I tried to swerve, and I ended up in the parking lot."
The Florida Highway Patrol said Hinkle's car left the road, went over an embankment and landed on two cars in the parking lot of the Texas Roadhouse restaurant.
"When I swerved, I thought, 'Oh, I was just going to be up in the intersection.' I looked and I realized I was heading into the parking lot and I couldn't do nothing about it because I couldn't stop at all," Hinkle said. "I was like surprised, because I was like, 'How does this happen?'"
Neither Hinkle nor the 86-year-old driver that turned into his path was hurt in the incident.
"It wasn't really scary it was just like, 'How did this happen?'" Hinkle said. "It was like hard to comprehend ... because it's kind of weird how you land on top of two cars."
