Miami Gardens, FL (May 14, 2026) – Three drivers were hospitalized after a three-car crash in Miami Gardens on Wednesday, May 13. The collision happened just before 8:40 p.m. near Northwest 199th Street and Ninth Avenue.
Officials said a black Kia K5 was traveling north on Ninth Avenue before the crash. It then collided with a red Lexus that was traveling east on Northwest 199th Street.
The impact pushed the Lexus into a red Ford Fusion that was traveling west. The driver of the Lexus, who was pregnant, was airlifted to Ryder Trauma Center in stable condition.
Emergency units also took the other two drivers to a local hospital by ground for treatment, although their conditions were not included in the initial report.
The crash remains under investigation. Additional details may become available as authorities continue their review.
We are thinking of those injured and wish them a full recovery.
Medical Care After Multi-Vehicle Intersection Crashes
Multi-vehicle crashes at intersections can cause injuries from more than one impact. A first collision may push a vehicle into another lane, creating a second crash before drivers have time to react.
Pregnant crash victims may need extra medical checks, even when they appear stable. Hospital teams often monitor both the mother and the baby for signs of trauma, pain, or stress after impact.
Other drivers may also need evaluation for injuries that are not obvious at the scene. Neck pain, back pain, bruising, and head injuries can appear later. For this reason, medical care after a three-car crash can help identify injuries early.
