Car Crashes in the Columbia, SC Area

by | Jun 20, 2018 | Auto Accidents, Personal Injury | 0 comments

Last week, a Lexington County teenager was killed in an auto accident just 11 days after graduating from high school.

The 18-year-old former Gilbert High football player, who had planned to attend the University of South Carolina later this year, was driving home when his car drifted off Cedar Grove Road and struck several trees near Leesville. His father said he was about two minutes from their house.

Unfortunately, quite a few Columbia-area families are dealing with similar tragedies. We’re not even half-way through 2018, but more than a dozen serious accidents have left several people dead and many more injured in the Columbia, SC area.

Like the Leesville crash, some happen on secondary roads. Some involve just one vehicle. But, not surprisingly, several accidents have left travelers dead or hospitalized and shut down one or more lanes of traffic on Interstates 26 and 20.
