Macomb, MI – Crash on I-94 Near 23 Mile Rd Causes Injuries

Macomb, MI (April 23, 2025) – A multi-vehicle accident occurred on Interstate 94 in Macomb County during the Monday evening commute, leaving at least one person injured and causing significant traffic disruptions. The collision was reported at approximately 5:15 p.m. on April 22, just before Exit 243 near the intersection with 23 Mile Road, close to the New Baltimore-Algonac exit. The vehicles were headed in the direction of Port Huron.

Emergency responders arrived quickly to assist victims and clear the roadway. One or more individuals sustained injuries and were taken to area hospitals for further evaluation and treatment.

Traffic in the area was backed up for several miles as lanes were temporarily blocked to allow emergency crews to work safely. Motorists traveling through the region were urged to seek alternate routes or expect delays while the scene was being managed. Law enforcement is continuing to investigate the cause of the crash.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in Michigan

Each year in Michigan, hundreds of thousands of drivers are involved in motor vehicle crashes, many of them on major interstates like I-94. In 2023, Michigan saw nearly 300,000 crashes, and high-speed collisions on highways often led to severe injuries and extended roadway closures. The combination of fast-moving traffic, merging vehicles, and sudden stops makes highways especially dangerous.

In the wake of a serious crash, victims may encounter challenges that go beyond the initial injuries. Here are some common long-term effects worth understanding:

• Physical Rehabilitation: After a major collision, victims may require physical therapy to recover strength, flexibility, and mobility. This process can take weeks, months, or even years, depending on the severity of the injuries.
• Lost Earning Capacity: For those who suffer permanent or long-term disabilities, returning to work may not be possible. This can drastically affect future earnings and financial security, especially for those in physically demanding jobs.
• Lifestyle Adjustments: Serious injuries often force people to change the way they live, from modifying their homes to relying on assistive devices or home health care. These changes come with both financial and emotional impacts.
• Emotional and Psychological Impact: The trauma of a crash may result in anxiety, depression, or PTSD. Many victims struggle with a fear of driving again or the emotional toll of lifestyle changes after an accident.
• Ongoing Medical Expenses: Long after the crash, medical bills can continue piling up, especially for surgeries, follow-up appointments, or chronic pain management. These costs can be overwhelming without proper compensation.
