A man and a woman were taken to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital after a driver struck them on Saturday, October 31, 2026, near 3050 Biscayne Boulevard in Miami's Midtown neighborhood, according to Local 10 News.
Miami Fire Rescue crews responded after reports of at least two pedestrians struck by a vehicle. First responders said both people were in "extremely critical condition." Their ages and identities had not been released.
The Miami Police Department is investigating the circumstances of the crash. Information about the driver and any charges had not been released, and details may change as police share more.
Pedestrians on busy city corridors
Florida law generally requires drivers to yield to pedestrians who are lawfully in a crosswalk, and it also sets rules for people crossing outside one. On a wide, busy corridor like Biscayne Boulevard, with turning traffic, driveways, and storefronts, a driver may have only a moment to see someone on foot. Investigators usually look at signal timing, sight lines, lighting, speed, and whether the driver was paying attention. When a vehicle strikes a person on foot, there is nothing between the body and the car, so even crashes at city speeds can cause serious injuries. Responsibility is not assumed from the outcome; it depends on what the investigation shows.
Thoughts are with the two people who were hurt, and with everyone affected by this crash.
