3 Injured in S Progress Road Pedestrian Accident [Spokane Valley, WA]

Spokane Valley, WA (June 19, 2023) – At about 7:30 last night, three mid-teens were injured in an S Progress Road pedestrian accident.

Spokane Valley deputies said five mid-teens were struck by the car as they walked E 8th Avenue and South Progress Road.

The authorities said the involved driver was female and did not speak English. According to the investigating officers, she turned on S Progress Road where she saw the teens, and hit the gas instead of the brakes on accident.

The Spokane Valley Police Department said the victims of the traffic accident on E 8th Avenue will be alright.

Collisions Could Happen Any Minute

Traffic safety continues to be a life-and-death matter. As a matter of fact, a person dies in a vehicle accident every couple of hours.

Driving your children to school, going to the market, or driving to fill up on gas should not be a life-and-death matter. Even so, the likelihood of car accidents continues to rise.

Moreover, preventing traffic incidents like the California Avenue collision is a shared responsibility. It is vital to keep an eye out for those who are on the road with you. Your safety on the road is never guaranteed; however, knowledge is a powerful tool.
