Medford, NJ (September 25, 2024) – According to Medford Police Department officers, a vehicle caught fire, and a traffic signal was down after a crash that took place on Tuesday morning, September 25, on Route 70 in Burlington County.
Medford Township Police say that a vehicle was traveling west on Route 70 at Highway 541 when a second vehicle attempted to make a left turn onto northbound Highway 541 from eastbound Route 70. That’s when the two vehicles crashed. At least two people were hurt in the incident, but none of the injuries is believed to be life-threatening, police said.
After the collision was initially reported at around 8:45 a.m. at the intersection of Route 70 and Main Street (Route 541), Route 70 was shut down in both directions, but it has since reopened. However, the investigation into the crash remains ongoing, and no other details were provided.
Our thoughts are extended to the injured victims and their families in hopes of their full recovery.
Injury Vehicle Collisions in New Jersey
Thousands are injured or killed in car crashes in New Jersey on a daily, weekly, and yearly basis. Even though most of these collisions are mere fender benders or rear-end wrecks, where property damage and injuries are fairly limited, victims of any type of accident may suffer significant injuries. In fact, nearly 60,000 persons in New Jersey were hurt in motor vehicle accidents only this year alone.
Serious car crashes may happen on any roadway, although they happen more often on heavily used thoroughfares and intersections. Head-on collisions are especially severe and generally take place on two-lane roads, highways without medians, and any other areas where visibility may be limited or speeds may be higher. Moreover, these kinds of car accidents have the strong potential to change your life forever and can occur in a second. But no matter the cause of your collision, when you’ve been hurt in an accident that was not your fault, you can and should consult with an attorney who will advocate on your behalf.
