Tallahassee, FL – EMS Called to Injury Crash on Buck Lake Rd

Tallahassee, FL (June 23, 2025) – An injury crash on June 21 created major delays in Tallahassee after multiple vehicles collided at the intersection of Buck Lake Road and Spanish Mission Court. The incident occurred around 6:21 p.m. and prompted a roadblock while emergency crews responded.

Emergency personnel from the Tallahassee Police Department and local EMS rushed to the scene. At least one person was hurt and was treated at the crash site before being transported to a nearby hospital for further care. Law enforcement officials worked to document the incident and manage traffic, which was heavily impacted by the temporary road closure. Clean-up efforts lasted for some time as responders worked to reopen the roadway safely. Investigators are continuing to piece together the cause of the crash and whether any citations will be issued.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in Florida

Thousands of motor vehicle accidents take place in Florida every month, many resulting in significant injuries and roadway disruptions. In 2023, the state saw more than 394,000 crashes, highlighting how common these incidents are across various counties. This underscores the daily risk Florida drivers face on busy intersections and highways. You can learn more about ongoing safety initiatives and transportation programs through Florida.

When accidents like this occur, the impact can be felt in many ways. Below is a closer look at the financial aftermath many victims experience:

  • Medical Bills and Emergency Care: One of the first expenses after a crash is medical care. Ambulance rides, ER visits, scans, surgeries, and hospital stays can add up quickly. Even with insurance, co-pays and uncovered procedures may cause financial strain.
  • Lost Wages and Missed Work: Injuries often result in missed work days, whether for recovery or medical appointments. For hourly employees or those without strong benefits, this time away can mean a significant loss in income.
  • Property Damage and Vehicle Repair: Repairing or replacing a damaged vehicle is a major cost. Rental cars or alternate transportation can also be a financial burden while your own car is in the shop or totaled.
  • Long-Term Therapy or Rehabilitation: Physical therapy, chiropractic care, and follow-up appointments are often necessary. These ongoing treatments can be costly, especially if they extend over several months or years.
  • Pain and Suffering Compensation: Non-economic damages like emotional distress, physical pain, or mental anguish may not have a clear dollar value but still affect your life and future.
  • Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Small but frequent costs like over-the-counter medicine, medical supplies, or travel to appointments add up. Victims often overlook these items when budgeting post-accident.
