Milwaukee, WI (March 17, 2026) – On Monday, March 16, two men from Milwaukee were injured following a pickup accident on Interstate 35, approximately 5 miles northwest of Winston.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, a 33-year-old male driver was traveling southbound on I-35 when the rear of his pickup began to slide. The vehicle veered off the side of the roadway, struck a sign, and overturned, ultimately landing on its roof.
The driver and a 28-year-old male passenger sustained injuries. Both were transported by private vehicle to Cameron Regional Medical Center for treatment. Emergency responders secured the scene while troopers investigated the circumstances surrounding the crash.
The pickup sustained extensive damage, and traffic was temporarily disrupted as crews cleared the area.
Law enforcement is investigating the incident.
Our thoughts are with those injured, and we hope for their full and rapid recovery.
What to Do After a Truck Accident in Wisconsin
First, ensure that everyone receives medical attention. Even minor injuries should be evaluated, as some conditions may not be immediately apparent. Medical records will also document injuries for potential claims, which can be critical if symptoms develop later.
If possible, gather information at the scene. This includes taking photos of the vehicles, roadway, and any visible damage, skid marks, or debris.
Collect the names, addresses, and insurance details of other parties involved, and obtain contact information from any witnesses. Noting environmental factors, such as weather, lighting, and traffic conditions, can also be helpful.
Report the accident to law enforcement. An official police report provides a record of the incident that can be crucial for insurance and legal purposes. Be sure to request a copy once it is available.
Notify your insurance company promptly with accurate details about the crash. Avoid speculating about fault until all facts are established.
Finally, consider consulting a legal professional experienced in Wisconsin traffic laws. A Milwaukee personal injury attorney can help you navigate insurance claims, assess potential compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and other damages, and guide you through the legal process.
They can also help preserve evidence and communicate with the other driver’s insurer to ensure your rights are protected.
