Semi-Truck Hits Honda on I-95 in Jacksonville, Leaves Dorothy Quigley Badly Injured


Jacksonville, FL — An elderly woman from Hastings who was critically injured last Tuesday (June 23, 2015) when her Honda was rear-ended by a semi-truck has been identified. 83-year old Dorothy Quigley was taken to a hospital after the accident, which happened around 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday afternoon.

This was in the northbound lanes of I-95, just north of Race Track Road.

The FHP said that Quigley was driving her Honda Accord along I-95 that day when she was rear-ended by a semi-truck driven by 36-year old Victor Torres. This caused Quigley’s much smaller Honda to lose control and flip upside down.

Paramedics were called to the scene and rushed Quigley to a hospital, where she was in critical condition as of the last update.

The truck driver, Victor Torres, to troopers that Quigley had lost control of her car before he hit her. He claimed that Quigley’s car swerved into a guardrail and bounced back into traffic when he hit the car.

This is going to be investigated some more.

I'm a former employee. I had brought up this exact scenario and suggested a maintenance procedure that would eliminate the possibility of this type injury. Obviously my warning went unheeded.

I was actually a couple cars back from this wreck, one of the first on the scene, and helped administer CPR on the victims. The truck driver was going way too fast, but it was actually his trailer that swung around and hit the suv, the semi-truck ended in the median.

A lot of people say smack about lawyers, but I want to say that I'm glad there is a way that people who are wronged by corporate neglect can get justice and force change. We are living in a world where corporations and govt care less than ever about common people, and I support your work. I hope I will never need your services.

Thank you for posting these accident articles on your site. At the company that I work for, e deal with monitoring construction activity and work around trenches and all sorts of construction equipment/vehicles. I sometimes wonder if construction companies have enough safety training to inform employees of how to protect themselves while on the job.
