Blue Ash, OH – Two Injured in Car Crash on I-71 near MM 16.7

Blue Ash, OH (August 30, 2021) – A motor vehicle accident reported in Blue Ash on Saturday evening left two people injured. At around 5:53 p.m., on August 28, the Blue Ash Police Department responded to the site of a crash on Interstate 71.

Reports from local authorities show that a gray 2015 Ford Fusion was traveling south on Interstate 71. As the vehicle approached mile marker 16.7, it collided with a second vehicle. The impact of the crash caused the driver of the Ford to lose control of their vehicle and strike a concrete median.

A passenger in the Ford, a 32-year-old female, and the driver, a 72-year-old female, were both transported to Bethesda North hospital for care. At this time, the incident remains under investigation.

Our thoughts are with the victims injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.

Car Accidents in Blue Ash, Ohio

Each year, over 65,000 people are hurt in motor vehicle accidents across the state of Ohio. In many instances, those harmed require emergency medical attention for their injuries. Although we believe we know what to expect following a motor vehicle crash, there is no way to truly prepare for the mental, physical, and financial consequences people are forced to endure. 

In many cases, victims are left with painful internal organ damage, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries that require emergency medical care and months of therapy and rehabilitation. These and various other life-threatening injuries have multiple treatment options available. However, there is no guarantee that injured parties will ever truly recover from their injuries. In fact, motor vehicle accidents across the state of Ohio leave thousands of victims permanently disabled each year.

When people are injured in accidents, due to the negligence of motorists, seeking the help from a skilled Cincinnati car accident attorney can greatly improve their chances of recovering. In some cases, injured parties may be entitled to compensation to cover lost wages, medical expenses, long-term care costs, and a variety of other economic and non-economic damages they face moving forward from their accidents.
