St. George, UT (November 12, 2026) – Responders took two drivers to the hospital after a wreck at the intersection of 100 East and St. George Boulevard.
According to St. George Police, the collision was reported around 6 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10.
Investigators are still working to determine what led to the crash.
We hope both recover fully and promptly.
Can You Recover Damages If You Share Fault in St. George, UT?
Yes, as long as your share of fault is less than the combined fault of the other parties. Utah uses a modified comparative fault system, so a person found 40% at fault can still recover 60% of their damages. Someone found 50% or more at fault generally recovers nothing from the others.
Utah adds a few twists that affect the final number. Each defendant usually pays only its own percentage of the damages, so a person cannot collect the full amount from one driver if others share the blame.
Fault can also be assigned to people who are not part of the lawsuit, which may shrink what the injured person collects from those who are. Intersection claims usually come down to these percentages, especially when drivers dispute a yellow light, a left turn, or who entered first.
Evidence decides how those percentages land. Signal timing records, business and dashcam video, witness statements, and vehicle damage patterns can all show who had the right-of-way.
That kind of proof matters on busy St. George corridors , where heavy traffic and frequent signals create plenty of room for disagreement. Video and witness memories fade quickly, typically long before Utah's filing deadline. A car accident lawyer can gather that evidence early, challenge an insurer's fault estimate, and assess how a shared-fault finding may affect the claim.
Shared fault can lower what a person recovers, sometimes by more than they expect. At Cutt, Kendell & Olson Attorneys at Law, we can explain how Utah assigns percentages of fault and how those numbers may affect your specific case.
