On July 15, 2024 Billy Dehart Jr. was involved in a horrific car accident on Winter Lake Road in Lakeland.

Billy shared his crash experience with Winter Haven Daily:

“My name is William “Billy” Dehart Jr. I was involved in a 5 car rear end crash on July 15th. I woke up and started my day like every other day. My wife and I were on the way to drop off our vehicle at the Regal Kia on Bartow Highway. My wife was in our car and I was in our daughter’s bug. She was in front of the semi in front of me, I came to a stop. Then about 5 or seconds goes by and the car just explodes when I was hit from behind. The mack truck never slowed down, hit the car behind me, which of course smacked me and squashed me between it and a SUV.

My wife whipped her SUV around and ran across the street screaming, fearing I was dead. She basically carried me out of the car and out of danger. As a result I have a dislocated right shoulder, broken neck, lumber, left knee, and my right ankle is broken. I haven’t been able to go back to work at the pharmacy I was working and I’m not sure if I’ll ever be able to go back.”

Video of the crash:
