Behind every traffic headline is a life altered and a family suddenly thrust into an unimaginable nightmare. Recently here in Tulsa our community felt this pain deeply with the tragic passings of Joshua Holahta on I-44 and Donnell "DC" Dabney near 66th and Lewis. These losses, along with severe crashes like the one on September 7th, 2026, where William Wilkerson III was struck on his motorcycle by a driver running a red light, are stark reminders of the severe dangers riders and pedestrians face on our roads every day. 
 
​William survived, but he is currently fighting a grueling battle in the hospital with a broken back, fractured neck, broken ribs, punctured lung, fractured knee and shin, and severe trauma. In those first critical hours after a crash, families aren’t thinking about street design or municipal codes. They are left scrambling to cover unexpected medical bills, rehabilitation costs, and missed work while navigating a confusing system. That is where families get left behind—the police clear the wreckage, the lane reopens, and everyone else moves on, but the physical and financial wreckage remains.
