Post Falls, ID (September 3, 2025) – A traffic collision with injuries was reported Tuesday afternoon in Post Falls at the intersection of Seltice Way and Greensferry Rd. The crash drew a prompt response from emergency personnel and caused temporary disruptions along one of the city’s busiest corridors.
The incident occurred during active traffic hours and involved at least two vehicles. Witnesses described seeing paramedics treating multiple individuals on-site, some of whom were later transported to area hospitals for additional care. One of the vehicles appeared to have sustained significant side-impact damage, indicating a possible failure to yield or misjudged turn.
Fire crews assisted with clearing the roadway and ensuring there were no lingering hazards, including fluid leaks or obstructed lanes. Meanwhile, police officers directed traffic away from the intersection and began documenting the crash scene as part of their investigation. The area was reopened to traffic shortly after the damaged vehicles were removed.
At this time, authorities have not released information about the total number of people injured or the official cause of the crash. However, investigators are looking into whether traffic signal timing, distraction, or speed may have played a role.
We send our best wishes to all those affected and hope for a full and smooth recovery for the injured.
Intersection Crashes in Idaho
Crashes at intersections like Seltice Way and Greensferry Rd are a growing concern in Kootenai County, where traffic volumes have risen alongside rapid development in Post Falls and surrounding areas. As more drivers use these arterial routes, the risks of collisions involving turning vehicles, lane shifts, or signal confusion increase substantially.
According to the Idaho Transportation Department, intersection-related crashes account for a large portion of injury collisions throughout the state. Common contributing factors include failure to yield the right-of-way, distracted driving, and impaired visibility—particularly at multi-lane junctions like the one where Tuesday’s crash occurred.
Victims of these types of accidents often experience more than just physical injuries. The process of navigating insurance claims, vehicle repairs, and lost wages can add financial and emotional burdens to an already stressful situation. Idaho law provides avenues for injured individuals to pursue compensation when another party is at fault, but acting quickly is key.
Post Falls continues to invest in infrastructure and traffic flow improvements, but personal awareness remains a critical element of prevention. Drivers approaching intersections should reduce speed, avoid distractions, and use extra caution when turning or merging.
