State Road 716 in Florida

The 4.355-mile Florida State Road 716 or SR 716, also known locally as Port St. Lucie Boulevard (PSL), is an east-west road in Port St. Lucie in Florida. An interchange with Florida’s Turnpike extends from the road’s western terminus to an intersection with US 1 (SR5), its eastern terminus. SR 716 begins at an interchange with Florida’s Turnpike in the city of Port St. Lucie. The route runs east, retaining its status as a commercial street throughout the entire length of the state road designation. At the middle of the route, State Road 716 crosses over a pair of bridges North Folk of the St. Lucie River, the road’s only non-commercial section. Continuing east, the route finally ends at U.S. Route 1.

Florida Route 716 Accident

Motor vehicle accidents on Florida highways, including SR 716, are common. Such accidents often leave crash victims seriously injured or killed due to the high speeds at which vehicles travel on highways. A lot of commercial trucks are using the highways. When commercial big rigs such as semi-trucks and 18 wheelers are involved in highway accidents, the results can be very tragic.

As fatigued truck drivers struggle to maintain their focus on the road mile after mile, some of them can fall asleep at the wheel or may travel at high speeds to meet deadlines. Such driving behaviors are dangerous on any road, but the potential for a truck accident increases on a heavily-traffic highway.
