On June 12, State Police responded to a car accident that occurred on the Massachusetts Pike eastbound in Palmer. Police were first informed of this accident around 5:30 in the morning and emergency crews responded to the scene shortly thereafter.
Upon arrival at Exit 8, Palmer firefighters used the Jaws of Life to extricate one woman from a vehicle. The woman was transported to a nearby hospital with injuries, but the extent of her condition is still being determined. However, no fatalities were reported. Fire and police authorities closed the left lane for a time while personnel remained on-scene and documented the incident.
Massachusetts State Police reopened all lines within a couple of hours. Police took statements from witnesses and those involved in the accident. This crash remains under investigation.
Injuries and Vehicle Accidents
Whenever anyone gets behind the wheel of a car, they need to remember that their actions could end up causing an accident if they are not careful. Car accidents can sometimes have fatal consequences, and they can occur quickly. By remaining cautious and following all traffic laws, drivers can do their part to keep roads safe for themselves and for others. Reckless driving can end up causing injuries to victims.
While thankfully many car accidents do not result in any injuries, there are some car accidents that have dire outcomes.

When victims are injured, they have a right to seek assistance so they can focus on returning to their lives.
