Tallahassee, FL – EMS Requested at Car Crash on Springhill Rd

Tallahassee, FL (April 14, 2025) – A crash that occurred late Saturday afternoon, April 12, at the intersection of Springhill Road and Sprinil Road left at least one person injured and brought traffic to a halt in the Tallahassee area. Dispatchers received the emergency call at around 5:05 p.m., prompting a swift response from local police, fire, and EMS personnel.

Upon arrival, responders found multiple vehicles involved in the collision and worked quickly to assist those who were hurt. Paramedics provided treatment at the scene before transporting the injured to nearby hospitals. No deaths have been reported, though officials have not released the exact number of people injured.

Authorities remained on the scene for some time while crews worked to clear the road and assess the crash. Investigators are still working to determine the cause and whether any traffic violations contributed to the wreck. Drivers in the area were asked to find alternate routes while cleanup was underway.

We hope those injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in Florida

Florida consistently ranks among the top states for car accidents, with thousands of crashes occurring each month. In 2023 alone, more than 3,200 fatal crashes and over 250,000 injury crashes were reported statewide. With so many lives impacted each year, it’s crucial for Floridians to understand what steps to take after a crash—and how they may be affected moving forward.

One important topic to consider after an accident is dealing with property damage. Here’s what victims often encounter:

  • Delayed Repairs
    After an accident, victims may have to wait days, or even weeks, for vehicle repairs. This can delay work commutes, child transportation, or access to appointments. Parts availability, insurance approval, and shop scheduling can all extend the repair timeline.
  • Insurance Adjustments and Estimates: When a claim is filed, insurance companies will send out adjusters to estimate damage. However, the initial estimate may not always reflect the full cost of repairs, and supplemental claims are sometimes necessary. Knowing how to advocate for a fair repair value is essential.
  • Rental Vehicle Costs: If a vehicle is not drivable, victims often rely on rental cars. While some insurance policies cover rental fees, others do not—or only offer partial coverage. If there’s a delay in claim approval, it can leave drivers footing the bill or without transportation altogether.
  • Total Loss Disputes: In cases where a vehicle is declared a total loss, owners might be offered a settlement based on market value. Disputes can arise if the offer doesn’t reflect the actual condition or value of the car. Supporting documentation—like recent repairs or upgrades—can make a difference.
  • Vehicle Depreciation: Even after repairs are made, vehicles often lose value following an accident. This diminished value can impact resale or trade-in options later on. Victims may be entitled to compensation for this loss, but not all insurers offer it automatically.
