On Tuesday afternoon, the Florida Highway Patrol responded to a single-vehicle collision in Gadsden County.
A car was reportedly trying to negotiate a left turn on County Road 270A on Tuesday around 4:25 p.m., according to a Florida Highway Patrol report. This attempt was made just east of the junction of Thomas Smith Farm Road.
Before trying to overcorrect to the left, the car pulled off the road to the right. The automobile started to revolve clockwise and crossed both lanes of traffic.
The vehicle reportedly hit a number of trees on the south shoulder of the road.
A male passenger from Chattahoochee, age 23, was thrown from the vehicle. The driver, a 37-year-old Chattahoochee woman, was taken by emergency care personnel with non-life-threatening wounds to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital.
The patient was flown in serious condition by chopper to a hospital in Dothan, Alabama.
