ANNAPOLIS, Md. — The westbound lanes of the Bay Bridge reopened several hours after a multi-vehicle crash Saturday morning on the Bay Bridge.
Around 8 a.m., officers from the Maryland Transportation Authority were dispatched to the area for reports of a large crash spanning the west lanes.
A preliminary investigation revealed that 23 vehicles were involved in the initial crash, and an additional 20 were involved in a series of secondary crashes.
Two patients were taken to area hospitals with serious injuries. Eleven others were also taken to area hospitals; none are believed to be life-threatening, according to the MDTA.
The Bay Bridge did not fully reopen until 2 Saturday afternoon.
On Monday investigators released new details about a vehicle that may have been involved in the crash. Collision Reconstruction Unit investigators believe a blue 2018 Honda Civic (similar to the image below) was being driven at high speeds and erratically before the crash and may have contributed to the crash.
Anyone who witnessed the crashes on the Bay Bridge, or saw a Honda Civic similar to the one pictured above between 7:30am-7:45am, is asked to contact the Maryland Transportation Authority Police at 443-454-8703.
