Oakland, NJ – Allen Fall Hurt in T-Bone Wreck on I-287

Oakland, NJ (April 19, 2023) – A 25-year-old man suffered serious injuries following a car crash that took place in the Oakland area on Saturday, April 15.

Just before 4:30 p.m., 25-year-old Allen Fall was traveling north on Route 287 in a Ford F2 50 pickup truck. For unknown reasons, the vehicle was involved in a T-bone collision with a Nissan Xterra, which was traveling northbound on the road.

The impact of the crash caused the Nissan to overturn. The pickup truck continued forward and skidded along the center median before crashing into a sign pole.

Fall suffered severe injuries as a result of the crash. He was rushed to an area hospital, where he underwent emergency treatment. The driver of the Nissan was treated for minor injuries.

The crash prompted authorities to block off multiple lanes of the road for more than 4 ½ hours as they worked to clear the scene. Investigations are currently underway.

We hope Allen Fall and the second victim injured in this accident recover quickly.

Car Accidents in New Jersey

Thousands of motor vehicle accidents are reported in New Jersey every month. Many of these accidents leave victims with serious injuries that affect their lives forever. Common injuries that are reported following car accidents include:

  • Whiplash: Whiplash is incredibly common in motor vehicle accidents due to the sudden jerking of the human body. When a vehicle is hit with force, the body will continue in the same direction until it is pulled to a stop, most commonly by the seatbelt. Unfortunately, the neck can be affected by sudden jerking.
  • Concussion: Like whiplash, concussions are often a result of the head being subjected to significant jerking. This type of injury is the result of the brain striking the inside of the school. Concussions can lead to loss of balance, pain, and other consequences that can be overwhelming to deal with.
  • Broken bones: Broken bones are another common injury following motor vehicle accidents. Some of the most common broken bones are the arms, legs, ankles, and wrists and accidents. Depending on the type of impact, broken ribs can be common as well due to striking airbags or steering wheels.
  • Head injuries: Injuries to the head can be incredibly painful. There are many instances where people suffer skull fractures, traumatic brain injuries, and even facial injuries as a result of accidents.
  • Spinal cord injuries: These injuries can result in paralysis, which can impact nearly every aspect of a victim’s life. Spinal cord injuries are some of the most debilitating injuries that a victim can suffer. Unfortunately, motor vehicle accidents are one of the leading causes of them.
