Injuries Reported in Interstate 5 Vehicle Crash [Tumwater, WA]

Tumwater, WA (October 5, 2024) – Serious injuries have been reported in an Interstate 5 vehicle crash Wednesday morning.

It was about 9:40 a.m. when the multi-vehicle crash happened at milepost 104 near the U.S. 101 off-ramp.

Troopers initially responded to a two-car crash that blocked the left lane. However, a six-car collision occurred as traffic built up following the first collision.

A life flight helicopter landed on the highway and later left. The road remained closed to give way to the emergency crews.

Moreover, authorities diverted traffic to Deschutes Parkway and asked motorists to avoid the area. 

The authorities are still investigating.

Approximately one-third of all motor vehicle fatalities have been caused by speeding over the past two decades. 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.
