Miami-Dade, FL – Vehicle Crash with Injuries on Florida’s Turnpike near SW 216th St

Miami-Dade, FL - Vehicle Crash with Injuries on Florida’s Turnpike near SW 216th St

Miami-Dade, FL (July 20, 2021) – At least one person was hurt in an accident that occurred in Miami-Dade on the morning of July 20. At around 10:26 a.m., various responders were sent to the scene of a crash on Florida’s Turnpike. 

According to reports, the wreck took place on Florida’s Turnpike South at Exit 11: Southwest 216th Street, Cutler Ridge Boulevard. All lanes of the Turnpike were blocked for an extended period of time while police and paramedics worked to secure the scene. 

One or more people required transportation to area medical centers in order to receive treatment for injuries they sustained in the collision. No one involved has been publicly identified at this time. 

Police in Miami-Dade continue to investigate the circumstances of the wreck. 

Our thoughts are with everyone involved. We hope for their full and fast recovery. 

Florida Car Crashes

According to statistics published by NHTSA, a Florida car accident occurs about once every 92 seconds. This means that all motorists on our roadways must remain vigilant at all times as a crash could occur at any moment. Speeding, reckless driving, impairment, distraction, and more can all lead to a serious accident that can leave victims suffering from catastrophic injuries. Unfortunately, these incidents take place multiple times per day in Florida. In many instances, the victims are innocent motorists who were simply minding their own business when the crash takes place.

If you have been injured in an accident, you should seek to protect your legal rights as soon as possible. Many victims of car accidents in Florida mistakenly believe that the insurance company has their best interest in mind and is working for them when it comes to receiving a settlement of their claim. The insurance company, however, is only concerned with settling the case as quickly and cheaply as they can. It is important to make sure you are represented by experienced counsel who can help you get the compensation that you deserve.

At Boone and Davis, we make sure that our clients are able to recover the maximum amount according to law. With over 40 years of experience helping accident victims, we know how to evaluate your claim so that you are not left with an inadequate settlement that does not fully compensate you for your pain and suffering, lost wages, and medical bills. We will stand up for you when your back is against the wall. Our South Florida car accident attorneys are here to help during your time of greatest need.

We offer free consultations and case evaluations to all potential clients. We also work on a contingency fee basis for most accident cases so there is absolutely no obligation to you unless we obtain a recovery.
