FHP troopers said the teen violated the right of way of the other vehicle. Both vehicles had multiple airbag deployments and were immobilized in the road. A trooper pushed the vehicles out of the way using his patrol vehicle.

According to the FHP, the teen told troopers a vehicle turning right onto Rock Hill Road had screened her vision so she could not see the second vehicle approaching.

The 17-year-old Ponce De Leon girl and a passenger, a 16-year-old Ponce De Leon boy, suffered minor injuries. They said they would seek medical attention when they left the scene, the FHP reported.

The driver of the second car, a 37-year-old Freeport woman, was taken to an area hospital by ambulance to be treated for minor injuries.
