Looking for a crash that happened yesterday?
Every report above is a Michigan crash that was covered by named local news outlets or announced by the investigating agency, rewritten here with the location, the vehicles involved, the injuries as reported, and who is investigating. The list is newest first and is rebuilt every morning, so a crash reported yesterday afternoon or overnight is usually near the top by the following day.
If you are looking for something specific — an overturned semi, a dump truck rollover, a pedestrian struck near you, a crash that closed a freeway — browse by county or road above, or search the road name.
How soon after a crash does a report appear here?
Usually the next morning. Reports are compiled once a day from the previous 24 hours of Michigan coverage, so a crash that happened yesterday is normally posted today. Serious crashes are sometimes updated later as police release names, charges or a cause.
Do you report every crash in Michigan?
No. Michigan has hundreds of crashes a day and most are never reported publicly. What appears here is what local outlets and police agencies actually reported: crashes involving serious injuries or a death, commercial trucks, school buses, pedestrians and cyclists, freeway closures, or an ongoing investigation.
I saw a crash near me yesterday and it is not listed. Why?
Most likely nobody reported it. A crash with no serious injuries and no road closure rarely makes the news, and this page only carries incidents that can be attributed to a named source. Nothing here is written from an unverified account.
Is this legal advice about a specific crash?
No. These are news reports. They describe what was reported and what normally happens next in a Michigan investigation, and they are not advice about any particular case or person.
