Another Accident In Berlin, Three Hospitalized With Minor Injuries

BERLIN -- A busy couple of days for the Berlin Fire Department and EMTs continued on Wednesday afternoon with a two-vehicle accident at the intersection of Old Ocean City Blvd. and Route 50, the second in as many days in and around the area and at about the same time of day.

Around 4 p.m. on Wednesday, the Berlin Fire Department and EMTs responded to a vehicle collision at Route 50 and Old Ocean City Blvd. in a densely developed commercial area along the highway. After the collision, one vehicle was straddling the median on Old Ocean City Blvd. with significant front-end damage.
It appears the second vehicle left the roadway along Route 50 and took out a tall utility pole and a temporary road construction sign before ending up in the bottom of roadside ditch. The second vehicle must have spun around after leaving the roadway because it was facing west on the south side of the eastbound lanes. 


According to emergency service providers, three people were injured in the collision, one of whom was taken to PRMC in Salisbury, although none of the injuries appear to be serious. The collision jammed up rush hour traffic along both roadways for the second day in a row. On Tuesday afternoon, a two-vehicle accident at the intersection of Main Street and Old Ocean City Blvd. occurred at roughly the same time of day.

  1. Old people driving 30 mph below the limit and making dumb moves will cause all of this chaos. PA tags of course.
