Boise, ID (October 9, 2025) – A crash involving a semi-truck and two passenger vehicles closed Gowen Road in both directions near the Boise Airport on Thursday afternoon, according to police.
Accident Details: Officers responded to the scene near the intersection of Gowen Road and Supply Way after reports of a multi-vehicle crash. Authorities said two people were transported to local hospitals with injuries described as non-life-threatening. The collision forced officials to shut down both eastbound and westbound lanes while crews stabilized the area, removed damaged vehicles, and cleaned up debris. The roadway reopened later that evening once inspections confirmed it was safe.
Investigation: The Boise Police Department is investigating the cause of the crash. Officers are reviewing the positions of the vehicles, tire marks, and any available video footage to determine how the semi-truck and the two passenger vehicles collided. No citations or charges had been filed as of Thursday evening, and investigators said they do not believe impairment was a factor.
Legal Considerations: Crashes involving commercial trucks and passenger vehicles can result in serious injury claims and extensive property damage. Determining liability often requires reviewing the truck’s maintenance records, driver logs, and adherence to federal safety standards. Victims may pursue compensation for medical costs, vehicle repairs, and other damages if negligence is established.
This was a frightening afternoon for drivers near the Boise Airport. I wish everyone injured a full and swift recovery.
