Two injured in St. Charles, Missouri car accident
Kendra Moore, 26, and Lakishia Wells, 24, were both hospitalized after a three-car accident Friday afternoon on westbound 70 in St. Charles.
Moore and Wells were traveling in a 2005 Nissan Altima followed closely by two other vehicles, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol. One of the other vehicles, a 2004 Saturn Ion driven by Amy Smyth, 31, failed to slow with traffic and rear-ended a 2003 Honda Civic in front of it. The Civic was forced into Moore’s Altima, causing the injuries.
Moore and Wells were both taken to Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Peters, Missouri for treatment. None of the other drivers were listed as having sustained significant injury.
According to the investigating officer that filed the initial crash report, Smyth was inattentive and failed to keep a proper lookout to her front which most likely would have prevented the accident.
While the initial crash report is just the opinion of the officer, a Missouri personal injury attorney will look at the physical evidence of the crash and be able to collect damages for those injured by another’s negligence.
