Kansas City, MO (March 15, 2025) – A two-vehicle crash occurred on Interstate 435 northbound, just south of Missouri 152, at approximately 1:40 p.m. on March 13. The accident involved a 2009 International tanker truck and a 2010 Toyota Camry.
According to Missouri State Highway Patrol reports, the tanker truck was traveling northbound when it changed lanes and struck the Camry. Following the collision, the Toyota veered off the left side of the roadway and crashed into a concrete barrier. Emergency personnel from the Kansas City Police Department and Kansas City Fire Department responded to the scene to assist.
The driver of the Toyota, a 56-year-old woman from Kansas City, MO, sustained minor injuries in the accident. She was reportedly wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash and indicated she would seek her own medical treatment. The tanker truck, driven by a 52-year-old man from Kansas City, KS, sustained only minor damage and was able to be driven away from the scene. The Toyota Camry, however, sustained extensive damage and had to be secured roadside. Authorities continue to investigate the accident to determine if any further action will be taken.
Our thoughts are with the injured victim, and we hope for her full recovery.
