Rescue personnel tend to the driver of the 1997 GMC Yukon as passerby Ira McDuffie looks on.

A Lake Butler woman was injured after the SUV she was driving veered off Woodlawn Road south of Macclenny and overturned.

The 1997 GMC Yukon landed on top of the driver, Elizabeth Robertson, according to Ira McDuffie of Macclenny, who came upon the accident scene shortly after it occurred about 1 pm on October 20.

“We literally pushed [the SUV] over,” said Mr. McDuffie. “All I could see were her feet sticking out from under it ... She was trapped under the windshield.”

Mr. McDuffie said he and a handful of first responders stood the Yukon on its side to free the victim. A paramedic thanked him for his help and shook his hand before the ambulance transported Ms. Robertson to Shands Jacksonville.

The driver was charged with careless driving.

He said there’s been six wrecks on the recently widened and repaved roadway in the last month alone.

Mr. Bryant attributed the wrecks to the fresh asphalt and the thoroughfare’s 45 mph speed limit.

“Now people think they can drive like it’s NASCAR,” he said.
