Pleasant Grove, UT (October 04, 2022) – One person was killed and two more were hospitalized after a collision involving three vehicles took place on Tuesday, October 4th.
Pleasant Grove Police said that the victim died on impact.
One survivor was transported by medical helicopter to a regional trauma center and another was transported by ambulance to an area hospital.
The roadway was shut down for several hours.
No additional details have been released at this time.
We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.
Traffic lights and stop signs exist for a reason. They are designed to control the traffic flow and keep people safe. Drivers have a responsibility to follow driving laws to protect themselves and others from unnecessary harm.
Sadly, many drivers still ignore stop signs and run red lights. They are often in a hurry to get where they are going or do not have their full focus on the road.
Generally speaking, the driver who entered the intersection at a red light or without stopping at a stop sign is at fault for the crash. If someone is injured by that negligent driver, they are entitled to sue for compensation.
Regardless of their reason for disregarding lights or signage, they can cause serious accidents. If two vehicles collide as a result of this kind of driver negligence, it can cause catastrophic injuries and even death.
With the aid of an experienced intersection accident attorney, the injured party will be able to recover damages for hospital bills, lost income, and property damage.
