Salt Lake City, UT (August 7, 2025) A two vehicle collision involving a Nissan Murano and a Honda Pilot resulted in injuries on Wednesday afternoon, August 6. The crash occurred around 2:27 p.m. near 5656 South Redwood Road in Salt Lake City, causing significant traffic delays and emergency response activity.
According to reports from officers with the Salt Lake City Police Department, the two SUVs collided near a busy stretch of the roadway. Witnesses stated that one vehicle appeared to be making a lane change or turn when the other vehicle was traveling straight, resulting in a forceful side-impact crash.
Emergency responders quickly arrived to secure the scene and provide medical assistance to those involved. At least one person sustained visible injuries and was transported to a nearby medical facility for further evaluation. The current status of the victims has not yet been publicly disclosed, but authorities confirmed that no one was trapped in the vehicles at the time of the collision.
Traffic along S Redwood Rd was impacted for nearly an hour as emergency crews worked to clear the scene and remove both damaged vehicles. Tow trucks were called in to assist, and traffic control was provided while officers conducted their on-site investigation.
Investigators are reviewing witness statements, vehicle positions, and any available surveillance footage to determine fault. Possible contributing factors include failure to yield, driver inattention, or misjudgment during a merge or turn. The crash remains under investigation, and no citations have been announced as of this time.
We extend our sincere wishes for a swift and full recovery to everyone affected by this crash.
Two Vehicle Collisions in Salt Lake City
Collisions between mid size SUVs like the Nissan Murano and Honda Pilot are unfortunately common across Salt Lake City’s main traffic corridors. While these vehicles are built with advanced safety features, crashes can still lead to injuries such as whiplash, fractures, or soft tissue trauma.
Many accident victims face extensive medical treatment, including ambulance transportation, ER visits, imaging scans, and physical therapy. In more severe cases, long-term care or rehabilitation may be required. On top of physical pain, there’s also the financial strain of medical bills, lost wages, and vehicle repair costs.
