Muskego, WI (August 6, 2025) – A two-vehicle T-bone collision at the intersection of S Moorland Rd and College Ave Wednesday evening resulted in multiple injuries and required a dual-agency emergency response from both New Berlin and Muskego crews.
The crash occurred around 5:03 p.m. at the border between the two cities, with Waukesha County dispatch confirming that the collision fell under Muskego’s jurisdiction. First responders arrived on scene to find significant damage to both vehicles and at least one individual requiring urgent care. A second ambulance was requested at approximately 5:13 p.m. due to the number of injured parties.
By 5:21 p.m., two tow trucks were called to remove the damaged vehicles, and both injured individuals were transported to nearby hospitals for further medical evaluation. The extent of their injuries has not been made public, but the prompt EMS response suggests the injuries were considered serious enough to warrant advanced care.
Authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the crash. Factors such as failure to yield or a traffic signal violation are under consideration, but no official determination has been made.
Our thoughts are with both injured individuals, and we wish them a complete and swift recovery.
T-Bone Collisions in Wisconsin
T-bone crashes—also known as side-impact collisions—are among the most dangerous types of vehicle accidents, especially at intersections where vehicles travel at perpendicular angles. The impact from the side often results in significant injuries to occupants, particularly if the struck vehicle lacks side-impact protection.
The intersection of S Moorland Rd and College Ave is a busy corridor on the border of New Berlin and Muskego, where high-volume traffic and turning vehicles increase the likelihood of such crashes. Afternoon hours—such as the time of this collision—often bring increased travel for commuters, school traffic, and local residents, creating a heightened risk for serious accidents.
Victims of side-impact crashes frequently face long-term recovery challenges, from physical rehabilitation to financial burdens related to medical care and lost income. Under Wisconsin law, individuals injured due to another driver’s failure to obey traffic laws may be eligible to seek compensation. This can include coverage for hospital bills, therapy, pain and suffering, and property damage.
Timely action is crucial in such cases. Victims are encouraged to obtain official accident reports, maintain medical records, and seek appropriate support as early as possible in the recovery process.
As local authorities work to enhance intersection safety across Waukesha County, defensive driving and strict attention to right-of-way remain essential in preventing future injuries.
