Another day. Another one of those #OnlyInFlorida stories. The Tampa Bay Times reports that a 71 year old woman got a pretty bad cut after a turtle crashed through her windshield. The incident happened near Daytona yesterday. The woman was the passenger in the vehicle at the time. Her daughter was driving and immediately pulled over. Sounds like at the time they had no idea what the object was at first that hit her. When they realized it was a turtle, they were suprised.

Fortunately the woman wasn't seriously hurt. And the crazy thing... the turtle was fine too. Police say it just got a few scratches on its shell and they released it into the woods.

If you were wondering if this turtle has strange super powers, you need not worry. They think the turtle was sent airborne by another vehicle. [Source: TBT]
