August 28, 2024

Oklahoma City, OK (August 28, 2024) – A multi-vehicle crash in Oklahoma City on Tuesday, August 27, left at least one person with injuries, and emergency responders were quickly called to the scene to render aid. That afternoon, around 3:24 p.m., the crash was reported on Interstate 40 near S. Westminster Road. Three or more vehicles reportedly collided at the scene. 

There were confirmed injuries in the collision, but it is currently unknown how serious they were at this time. Responding paramedics provided first aid to the accident victims before transferring them to nearby hospitals for further treatment. Tow trucks were later sent to clear the resulting debris. The roadway was reopened a few hours later. No further information has been provided at this time. The cause of the crash is the subject of an ongoing investigation.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families at this time. We hope for their full recovery.

Reckless Driving Crashes in Oklahoma

Oklahoma City, OK - Pileup Crash with Injuries at I-40 & Westminster RdYou never know what someone else will do behind the wheel. Unfortunately, Oklahoma drivers have a reputation for being reckless behind the wheel, with speeding and driver distraction both being common on the state’s roads. Distracted driving has quickly become one of the leading causes of life-changing crashes in the United States, contributing to over 3,000 deaths and many more serious injuries on average each year. In the time it takes to send a single text, you can travel the length of a football field when traveling at highway speeds. Texting while driving is one of the worst offenders, but things such as talking with a passenger and messing with the radio can also take your focus off the road. It is important that you consult with a trained Oklahoma City personal injury lawyer in order to aggressively pursue a claim for compensation after a serious auto accident.
