OSCEOLA COUNTY, Fla. – A man driving a truck Wednesday morning veered off the road and took a nose dive into a backyard pool, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers said the 49-year-old driver left the roadway in order to avoid a disabled vehicle that was in the travel lane. The pickup truck then went through a yard, burst into the screened-in patio and went head first into an underground swimming pool.

“Drivers have to be alert for vehicles in the roadway,” FHP said.
