Flint, MI (August 19, 2024) – At least one person was transported to a local hospital for the treatment of injuries following a motor vehicle accident that occurred in Flint on Sunday, August 18.
At around 12:45 p.m., a motor vehicle accident occurred on the westbound side of Interstate 69. Emergency officials arrived at the scene and immediately closed off a portion of the roadway near the entrance to northbound Interstate 475 as emergency crews worked to remove the involved vehicles.

The accident is currently being investigated by law enforcement.
We hope those harmed by this crash recover quickly.
Motor vehicle accidents can dramatically alter the course of a person's life. Unfortunately, many of these incidents occur due to the reckless actions of others on the road. Several key factors often contribute to these collisions, making them all the more tragic because they are frequently preventable.
One of the most significant causes of accidents is distracted driving. When a driver diverts their attention from the road, even for a few seconds, the risk of a collision increases sharply. Whether it's talking on the phone, texting, or other distractions, the danger is always present when focus shifts away from driving.
Speeding is another major contributor to car accidents. Not only does speeding make accidents more likely, but it also reduces the time drivers have to react to unexpected situations. This combination can lead to severe and sometimes fatal collisions that might have been avoided if the driver had adhered to speed limits.
Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is another leading cause of accidents. Impairment significantly affects a driver's ability to make sound decisions and maintain control of their vehicle. The result is often devastating, as impaired drivers pose a serious threat to everyone on the road.
