The People Behind This Site

We built Utah Accidents with a clear purpose: to give readers careful, grounded reporting on the crashes and roadway issues that can change a life in an instant. As former newsroom reporters who chose to go independent, we wanted to create a publication that treats accident coverage with the seriousness, empathy, and scrutiny it deserves. We believe people looking for answers after a collision need more than fragments and headlines. They need context, clarity, and reporting that respects what is at stake. Our coverage centers on car accidents, road safety, and the legal issues that often follow a crash. We report on collision trends, dangerous intersections, enforcement and policy questions, insurance disputes, injury claims, and the real-world consequences of decisions made on the road and after an accident. Whether we are breaking down a developing incident or explaining a broader public safety concern, we aim to be precise, readable, and useful. Our work is rooted in Utah, and that matters to how we report. We pay attention to the roads, communities, and legal landscape that shape daily life here, and we approach every story with local knowledge and a reporter's discipline. Our writers, including Jared Christensen, Maria Lucero, Kevin Musselman, and Sandra Begay, bring different strengths to the table, but we share the same commitment: honest reporting that serves Utah readers well.
