Cantonment, FL - Collision With Injuries at Old Chemstrand Rd and CR-95A

Cantonment, FL (August 8, 2025) – Late Thursday afternoon, August 7, a crash at the intersection of Old Chemstrand Road and County Road 95A left at least one person injured. The wreck occurred at approximately 5:17 p.m. and brought multiple emergency units to the scene.

Police, fire crews, and emergency medical personnel closed sections of the roadway to assist the injured and remove damaged vehicles. Paramedics treated the victims on-site before transporting them to nearby hospitals for additional care. Traffic in the surrounding area was temporarily redirected, causing brief delays for drivers.

The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating the cause of the crash. Authorities are reviewing witness statements and examining roadway conditions to determine the factors that led to the collision.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in Florida

Florida sees thousands of car accidents every year, many resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. Factors such as distracted driving, speeding, and impaired driving are among the most common contributors. The impact on victims can be significant, leading to medical expenses, lost wages, and emotional distress.

Some frequent causes of crashes in the state include:

  • Distracted driving: Taking eyes off the road for even a few seconds to use a phone or adjust controls can result in a serious wreck.
  • Speeding: Exceeding speed limits reduces reaction time and makes accidents more severe.
  • Driving under the influence: Alcohol and drugs impair judgment and reaction time, increasing crash risks.
  • Failure to yield: Many accidents occur when drivers fail to give the right-of-way at intersections.
  • Following too closely: Tailgating leaves minimal stopping distance, often causing rear-end collisions.
