Mt. Morris Twp., MI - Crash at W Pierson Rd & N Elms Rd Results in Injuries

Mt. Morris Twp., MI (May 5, 2025) – Authorities in Genesee County were dispatched to the intersection of West Pierson Road and North Elms Road after a vehicle accident was reported on Sunday, May 4. The crash occurred just before 5:30 p.m. and resulted in injuries to at least one person.

The crash, which involved multiple vehicles, led to the temporary closure of lanes at the intersection. Emergency medical personnel arrived quickly and rendered aid to the individuals involved. One or more victims were transported to nearby hospitals for evaluation and additional treatment. Officers with the Mt. Morris Township Police Department are handling the investigation. Crews remained on-site for a period of time to clear debris and document the circumstances of the accident. Although traffic was disrupted in the area, normal flow resumed after the scene was cleared.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in Michigan

In Michigan, car crashes occur frequently and can range from minor to life-changing. Data from 2023 shows that over 282,000 accidents occurred across the state, many of which involved injuries. These incidents are often caused by careless driving, adverse weather, or failure to follow traffic signals. Intersections are especially dangerous due to the volume of vehicles and the unpredictability of drivers’ actions.

When accidents happen, the injuries involved can impact more than just the body. Here are some key facts about the financial burden crashes place on victims:

• Medical Expenses: Ambulance rides, ER visits, surgeries, and physical therapy can leave victims with tens of thousands of dollars in medical bills. Even with insurance, out-of-pocket costs are often high and long-term care may be needed.
• Lost Wages: Injuries can keep someone out of work for weeks or even permanently. When a victim is unable to work, they lose income and benefits, putting additional financial pressure on their household.
• Property Damage Costs: Vehicle repairs—or worse, total replacements—are often not fully covered by insurance. Rental cars or alternate transportation may add even more financial stress.
• Long-Term Financial Impacts: Serious injuries may prevent someone from returning to their former job or working altogether. This may mean a permanent loss of income, requiring significant adjustments to a family’s financial planning.
