Boonsboro, MD (January 19, 2026) – A serious collision involving a motorcycle and a truck left one person injured on Saturday afternoon in the area of 21800 National Pike, near The Lodge. Emergency units were dispatched to the scene shortly after 12:18 p.m. on January 17, where a patient was found down in the roadway.
Responders from multiple units, including CO16 and RS10, arrived to provide immediate aid. Paramedics treated the injured motorcyclist at the scene, though details regarding the extent of the injuries have not been officially released. The truck driver remained at the scene as first responders worked to secure the area and manage traffic along this stretch of US-40 in Washington County.
This portion of National Pike is a rural yet frequently traveled corridor near local landmarks like The Lodge, and collisions involving motorcycles in such areas can result in especially severe injuries due to limited protection for riders. The cause of the crash is under active investigation by law enforcement.
We extend our well wishes to the injured individual and hope for a full and speedy recovery.
