According to Florida Highway Patrol, a 63-year-old Chipley man has died after a fatal accident on US 231 in Jackson County.
Troopers said a blue Suzuki was driving east on the driveway access for 2839 US 231 approaching the southbound lanes of US 231.
The driver of the Suzuki, a 75-year-old male from Panama City, failed to yield to oncoming traffic while exiting the driveway access and entered into the way of a red Ford pickup, officials said.
As a result, the front of the red pickup, driven by a 59-year-old man from Bonifay, hit the side of the Suzuki. Both vehicles rotated to face a southerly direction and exited the roadway onto the grass median of US 231.
At 10:19 a.m., FHP officials confirmed the passenger of vehicle one was pronounced deceased on the scene by Jackson County EMS.
