June 2013 Fatal head-on collision on Hwy 378 |
February
2010 Second auto accident in a week with ejections from vehicle. |
When Pamplico Rescue Squad was running an ambulance converted wreck truck, before changing it over to the fire department. |
February 11, 2002 Pickup, Schoolbus and tractor trailer accident. One fatality, one injury. Tractor trailer caught fire and burned after the impact. |
This is what the scene looked like as we approached. Ambulances had to divert around scene due to the fire covering the roadway and preventing access from that way. |
The top of the pickup was cut out to extricate the passenger by HSF Fire District and Pamplico Rescue. The driver was a fatality though. The passenger was a major trauma. |

July 2001 HWY 378 near Hanna One car swerved to miss another, the one behind hit it head-on. 4 critical patients from a total of 7 transports. FCEMS Medic 6 Medic 5 - Pamplico Rescue PR21 PR23 - Hannah-Salem-Friendfield Fire District - South Lynches Fire District |
Here you can see where the roof and doors were removed. The severe impact forced much of the front end of the vehicle and dash onto the occupants. Seatbelts and airbags prevented fatalities, but with this much impact, there are still going to be severe injuries. |

This SUV ran off the road, and rolled through this fence |
This post came through the back seat and into the drivers space |
It actually struck the driver on the back of his shoulder. A few more inches would have been fatal to him |
