Pittsburgh, PA (December 23, 2024) – According to a news release from the Pittsburgh Police Department, two Pennsylvania State Troopers investigating a hit-and-run crash on the Parkway North in Pittsburgh were taken to a hospital after their vehicle was hit.

At around midnight on Monday, a car became disabled while heading on the Parkway North near the Hazlett Street Exit. The driver got out of their car and began to push it off the road. According to authorities, when a passing vehicle pulled off to help, a black Dodge Ram 1500 truck hit the driver, pushed his vehicle, and fled the area. That driver was treated at the scene and taken to an area hospital.

As Pennsylvania State Police were investigating the crash, a vehicle hit a marked State Police Vehicle with its lights and arrow sticks activated. Two troopers inside the vehicle were taken to a hospital. That said, no further details were released, and an investigation is ongoing.

Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their loved ones. We hope for their complete recovery.

Car Accidents in Pennsylvania

Car accidents involving police officers in Pennsylvania have become a growing concern, reflecting both the dangers law enforcement officers face on the job and the risks posed to civilians. Officers responding to emergencies, pursuing suspects, or performing routine traffic stops often find themselves involved in collisions, whether due to high-speed chases, unexpected road conditions, or other drivers failing to yield.

While these accidents can lead to serious injuries or fatalities for both police and civilians, the most tragic incidents often highlight the inherent dangers of law enforcement work. In response, Pennsylvania has implemented various safety initiatives, including "Move Over" laws that require drivers to slow down and change lanes when approaching emergency vehicles. However, the rise in such accidents underscores the need for greater awareness, improved driving habits, and enhanced safety protocols.

Regardless of the details surrounding your crash, if you've sustained serious injuries or your loved one has lost their life as a result of a fatal crash that was caused by the careless or reckless actions of another motorist, your family may have legal options to help you move forward.
