Heber, UT (October 27, 2021) – Police officers and emergency responders arrived on the scene of an accident that caused a vehicle to flip over in Heber on Wednesday, October 27th.
The crash took place in the eastbound lanes of Highway 189 at the US-40 junction at about 4:45 p.m.
Paramedics on the scene medically evaluated everyone involved in the crash and provided victims with the proper medical treatment or transportation.
Even though injuries were confirmed, no additional details regarding the collision or its victims have been made public.
This accident is under investigation by local law enforcement.
Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their family at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
In 2015, 276 people died in Utah car accidents; the highest rate of fatalities in the state in the last seven years. According to a representative from the Utah Highway Patrol, 93% of those deaths were caused by human error.
While driving regulations and laws in every state exist for the sole purpose of preventing car accidents and the loss of life, it is obvious that not enough is being done. Especially when you consider that Utah’s rate of fatal car accidents has increased by more than 25% since its all-time low in 2012.
Although some of these fatal accidents can be attributed to an overall increase in travel, most of the state’s deadly crashes happen because drivers refuse to heed the state’s warnings about safe driving. Offenses ranging from not being properly restrained while the vehicle is moving to driving while drunk, Utah residents seem absolutely determined to go against the law and common sense.
