Omaha, NE (September 12, 2025) – A two-vehicle crash involving a tan SUV and a black sedan occurred Wednesday afternoon near the intersection of Dodge St and 132nd St in Omaha. The vehicles came to rest along the eastbound left shoulder, prompting concerns over possible injuries and triggering a police response.
Dispatch audio from Omaha Police’s West Division confirmed that the accident was reported just after 6:30 p.m. local time. Both vehicles remained roadside, with the occupants’ injury status initially unknown. Given the nature of the call — classified as a possible personal injury crash — responders were alerted to assess the scene and provide medical assistance if needed.
The incident took place along a fast-moving stretch of Dodge St, one of Omaha’s busiest commercial corridors. While details remain limited, the involvement of two vehicles, including an SUV, suggests that at least one lane of traffic may have been temporarily impacted as crews worked to manage the situation.
No updates have been provided on whether anyone required hospital transport. Authorities are continuing to investigate the crash and determine whether speed, lane changes, or other roadway factors contributed to the collision.
Our thoughts are with all individuals affected by this incident, and we hope for a full and swift recovery for anyone injured.
Two-Vehicle Accidents in Nebraska
Crashes involving two passenger vehicles — such as the SUV and sedan involved near Dodge St — make up a large percentage of roadway incidents across Nebraska. These types of accidents often occur during routine commutes, especially in areas with heavy cross-traffic and merging lanes like 132nd and Dodge.
The shoulder positioning of both vehicles suggests a moderate-speed collision that still had the potential to cause injuries. Even when vehicles remain drivable after impact, the jolt from the crash can lead to soft tissue injuries, concussions, or delayed symptoms that require medical evaluation. Drivers and passengers involved in such incidents should be examined by a healthcare provider, even if they initially feel uninjured.
Urban roads like Dodge St pose unique challenges during peak hours. Congestion, lane shifts, and aggressive driving behaviors all contribute to higher crash rates. The presence of a large SUV can also intensify the force of impact in a collision with a smaller car, making prompt scene evaluation and injury assessment essential.
After a traffic crash, it’s important for all involved to document the incident thoroughly, seek out appropriate medical attention, and understand their legal rights. Navigating insurance claims and post-accident care can be overwhelming, but local support systems are available.
