Brutal Pedestrian Crash on Highway 76 Injures Springfield Man [Stone County, MO]

Stone County, MO (August 26, 2024) On Sunday morning, a 54-year-old Springfield man was seriously hurt after a pedestrian crash on Highway 76.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP), the auto-pedestrian collision happened at about 2 a.m. on Missouri Highway 76 near Silver Dollar City.

Reports say that an eastbound Buick LeSabre struck a man walking in the middle of the road.

Medics rushed the Springfield man to a Springfield hospital in serious condition.

Authorities are investigating the pedestrian collision and have not released further details at this time.

Approximately one third of all motor vehicle fatalities have been caused by speeding over the past two decades. As a matter of fact, speeding contributed to 29% of all traffic deaths in 2022.

Even when you are driving at the speed limit, driving too fast for road conditions, such as during bad weather, in areas that are not well lit at night, or on a road under repair, can affect your safety.

Speeding endangers not only the driver, but all the people on the road around them. It is a problem we all need to solve.
