The drivers managed to pass in the unclosed lane, but the alligator later moved to the shoulder and both lanes reopened.
The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office has also been called in to investigate.
FHP Lieutenant Kim Montes said soldiers are waiting for the hunter to appear to remove the crocodile.
It is not known why the crocodile crossed the road.
