Tallmadge Township, MI (July 2, 2024) – A motor vehicle accident reported on Tuesday, July 2, claimed one person’s life in Ottawa County. The collision was reported just before 4:15 p.m.

Official reports show that a three-car collision took place on Lake Michigan Drive. The Ottawa County Sheriff’s Office determined that a 2005 Jeep and a 2021 Dodge Charger were both traveling on Lake Michigan Drive when they became involved in a collision. The impact of the crash sent the charger across the center line, where it collided with a 2008 Pontiac. The 27-year-old driver of the Pontiac was fatally injured and pronounced deceased at the scene. The driver of the charger was severely injured and airlifted from the scene. The victim was flown to a local hospital for emergency care. At this time, the incident is being investigated.

Our condolences go out to the family of the victim killed in this crash. We hope the injured victim recovers quickly.

Fatal Auto Accidents in Michigan

Traffic-related incidents can change your life forever. Regrettably, more than 55,000 vehicle collisions resulting in injuries take place on Michigan roadways annually. These accidents are often a result of reckless drivers. We see many negligent actions, such as speeding, impairment, distracted driving, and failure to obey traffic signals, contribute to the high rate of vehicle collisions reported across our state. Unfortunately, no matter how safe and considerate you are, you can never prevent another driver from engaging in reckless and negligent actions that could ultimately change your life.
