Rollover Vehicle Crash on Interstate 82 Injures 5 People [Kennewick, WA]

Kennewick, WA (April 15, 2026) – Five people were sent to an area hospital following a rollover vehicle crash on Interstate 82 early Monday morning.

The traffic accident happened past 2 a.m. on April 13, south Clodfelter Road.

WSP stated that an eastbound Honda Pilot on the freeway left the roadway and rolled over. 

The rescuers responded and rushed the five occupants of the vehicle to a hospital. They said two people sustained injuries.

Investigators determined that the driver, a 23-year-old Idaho man, was fatigued, which lead to the vehicle leaving the road and rolling over. The driver is charged with second-degree negligent driving.

Police confirmed that DUI was not a factor in the collision.

Traffic accidents could happen any minute, but so many are preventable with small, intelligent decisions. Pay attention, don’t get distracted (say, by texting) and never drive after drinking. As ever – obey speed limits, buckle up and keep plenty of room between yourself and other vehicles. These are small enough measures to save lives — including your own.

We can all take steps to help keep our roads safe for ourselves, our families and our communities.

Staying alert and avoiding erratic drivers can help reduce danger, but reckless behavior on the road can have devastating consequences. Always prioritize safety and obey traffic laws.
