Reisterstown, Maryland (September 6, 2025) — Several people were injured Saturday evening in a multi-vehicle crash involving a Carroll County ambulance and a tractor-trailer in Reisterstown, according to highway officials.
Incident Details: The crash was reported around 8:10 p.m. at the intersection of Butler Road and Westminster Pike while the ambulance was responding to a call with its emergency lights activated. Police said the ambulance was struck by a tractor-trailer transporting fuel. Although the truck was carrying hazardous material, no leaks were detected. Multiple victims were injured, with two flown to hospitals by Maryland State Police helicopters and several others transported by ground ambulance.
Investigation and Legal Considerations: The Baltimore County Crash Team and Maryland State Police are investigating the circumstances of the collision. Factors under review may include the tractor-trailer driver’s conduct, traffic signals, and the right-of-way of emergency vehicles. Crashes involving commercial trucks and ambulances often present complex liability issues, potentially involving multiple parties and insurers. Injured victims may pursue personal injury claims for medical costs, rehabilitation, and lost wages.
My thoughts are with all those injured in this serious Reisterstown truck accident, and I hope for their recovery.
