Oklahoma City, OK (December 31, 2024) – On Monday, December 30, one person was critically injured after a car accident in the Oklahoma City area. The incident took place at the corner of S. Walker Avenue and SW 66th Street late that night. Initial reports revealed that two cars collided at the scene.
One of the cars was rear-ended in the impact. Emergency crews were rushed to the scene to provide aid to the involved parties. The driver of one of the vehicles was transported to a local hospital by ambulance in critical condition. The driver and passenger of the other car were not hurt in the accident. The area was temporarily closed while emergency crews were present. At this time, no updates on the crash are currently available. Local law enforcement officials are managing an ongoing investigation into the cause of the incident.
Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
Rear-end collisions are some of the most common types of collisions in the United States. According to the most recent crash statistics, there are more than 1.7 million rear-end collisions in the country each year. It should come as no surprise that driver distraction accounts for over 87 percent of rear-end collisions. Distracted drivers are less likely to pay attention to the road and may crash into another car. Rear-end collisions are thought to be the cause of 1,700 fatalities annually, accounting for 7.1 percent of all traffic fatalities. If you or a loved one is hurt in a crash, you should consult with a qualified legal team as soon as possible to make sure your legal rights are upheld.
