Massive 10-Vehicle Crash on Interstate 10 Led to Injuries [St. Louis, MO]

St. Louis, MO (May 02, 2025) On Wednesday afternoon, a horrific 10-vehicle crash on Interstate 10 left 6 people hurt.

According to authorities, the massive collision happened around 4:00 p.m. near I-270 in north St. Louis County.

Reports say that a chain-reaction crash involving ten vehicles injured six people and shut down westbound Interstate 70.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol reported that the series of collisions began when a Dodge RAM and Jeep collided, blocking a lane.

As traffic attempted to avoid the initial crash, a Toyota rear-ended a KIA, which then hit the RAM and Jeep. Another Toyota then struck the first Toyota.

Meanwhile, vehicles were slowing down behind the scene, when a semi-truck rear-ended a Dodge Hornet, triggering further collisions with a Dodge Grand Caravan, a GMC, and a Lexus.

Paramedics transported six people, ages 17 to 44, to local hospitals. Most injuries were minor, but a 22-year-old woman suffered serious injuries. Authorities reopened all lanes of I-70 by 6:00 p.m.

Keeping the Road Safe is Everyone’s Responsibility

Be a defensive driver to prevent road accidents. Stay alert, maintain a safe distance, and always expect the unexpected. Avoid distractions, obey speed limits, and use your signals. Watch for pedestrians and cyclists. A proactive, cautious approach keeps everyone safer on the road. Drive smart, drive safe!

Stay alert and reduce speed near crash scenes—secondary collisions often result from distracted or rushed driving. Slow down and maintain a safe distance to help prevent chain-reaction crashes.
