Centerville, UT (May 13, 2025) – A crash disrupted the southbound lanes of Legacy Parkway early Tuesday morning, May 13, near Parrish Lane in Centerville. The incident was reported around 7:55 a.m. and caused significant delays during the morning commute.
The collision blocked the left lane and shoulder, leading to a backup that stretched as far north as the West Davis Corridor merge. Emergency responders arrived at the scene to assist and began efforts to clear the vehicles and direct traffic around the blockage. At least one person sustained injuries and was treated by paramedics before being transported to a nearby medical facility. Authorities are still investigating the circumstances that led to the crash, including whether speed, visibility, or merging traffic played a role.
We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.
Car Accidents in Utah
Davis County highways such as Legacy Parkway are vital commuter routes but also frequent sites of accidents. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, morning rush hour is one of the most dangerous times on the road, with heavy congestion and fast-moving traffic increasing the risk of multi-vehicle collisions.
Here are some important reminders for anyone involved in a highway crash:
- Seek Medical Attention Promptly: Even minor symptoms could point to internal injuries or trauma. Medical evaluation ensures your well-being and creates a record for your claim.
- Avoid Discussing Fault on the Scene: Emotions can run high, but let investigators determine responsibility. Stick to the facts when speaking with officers.
- Document the Scene Thoroughly: Take photos of vehicle positions, traffic signs, skid marks, and injuries. These details are critical for any legal case or insurance claim.
- Track Every Related Cost: Keep records of lost income, medical visits, repairs, and transportation. These expenses can be reimbursed through your settlement.
- Consult an Attorney Before Settling: Fast offers from insurers often miss key damages—especially long-term effects like therapy or missed work. Legal help ensures nothing is overlooked.
