Tomah, WI (June 30, 2026) – A two-vehicle roadway mishap caused traffic delays at the intersection of E McCoy Boulevard and Wittig Road in Tomah. One of the vehicles was towing a camper, which sustained heavy damage and had to be removed from the roadway.
Emergency units worked to clear the damaged camper while traffic moved through the intersection with delays. Only minor injuries were reported, though the number of people involved was not disclosed.
Ages and names were not included in the initial report on the accident. The cause remains under review as more information is gathered. We hope those hurt make a full and speedy recovery.
Why Camper-Towing Crashes Can Create Longer Road Delays
Crashes involving vehicles towing campers often take longer to clear than those involving passenger cars alone. A damaged camper may block travel lanes, detach from the towing vehicle, or require specialized equipment to be safely removed. This can extend traffic delays even when injuries are minor.
Investigators also typically examine how the camper was attached, whether its lights and brakes were functioning properly, and if the load was balanced correctly. Road conditions, visibility, and each vehicle’s movements before contact are also commonly reviewed. These details help build a clearer picture of what occurred and may explain why larger trailers can make roadway clearance more complex than a standard two-vehicle crash.
