St Louis, MO (November 26, 2021) – A motor vehicle accident reported in St Louis left one woman injured, according to reports. At around 4:24 p.m., on November 23, emergency crews were notified that their assistance was needed on-site at a crash on Interstate 270.
Reports from the Missouri State Highway Patrol show that a 2014 Nissan Altima was traveling north on Interstate 270 when it collided with a 2019 Jeep Wrangler just south of Interstate 70. The impact of the crash caused the Jeep to strike the rear of a 2004 Dodge Stratus.
The driver of the dodge, 21-year-old Jessica Meick, was injured in this accident. She was transported to SSM Health Depaul Hospital for care.
At this time, the incident remains under investigation.
Our thoughts are with Jessica Meick at this time. We hope for her full recovery.
Car Accidents in Missouri
Each year, motor vehicle accidents impact the lives of thousands of people across our state. Not only do people involved in collisions have their lives disrupted, but they are often left with significant financial, mental, and physical consequences as well. In many cases, victims sustain injuries that require extensive medical treatment. When victims break their bones or suffer traumatic head or neck injuries, they often need multiple surgeries and have to spend months off their feet or going to therapy.
Not being able to work while being overwhelmed with tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills not only impacts victims but their families as well. It does not seem right that victims who are injured in accidents as a result of the actions of others are forced to spend substantial amounts of money on treatment.
When victims are harmed in accidents as a result of other motorists, our state allows them to file legal claims against wrongdoers to recover compensation for the financial burdens they endure. Victims can benefit immensely by consulting with a car accident attorney in St Louis who is well-versed in personal injury laws in our state.
