Conway, SC (January 04, 2025) — Emergency crews responded on Saturday, January 3, to a serious three-vehicle collision on Highway 378 just west of Pee Dee Highway in Conway.

Horry County Fire Rescue (HCFR) was dispatched to the scene at approximately 4:41 a.m. after receiving reports of a multi-vehicle accident with occupants trapped inside at least one vehicle. Upon arrival, responders confirmed that extrication operations were necessary. 

Officials confirmed that two people were transported to the hospital with injuries following the crash. The severity of those injuries has not been publicly disclosed. Two additional people involved in the collision reportedly signed medical transport waivers, declining hospital transport after being evaluated on scene by emergency medical personnel.

The South Carolina Highway Patrol is leading the investigation into the cause of the crash. 

We extend our best wishes to those injured during their recovery.

Multi-Vehicle Crashes in Horry County

Crashes involving multiple vehicles and entrapment often highlight the dangers associated with early morning driving, particularly on major highways like Highway 378.

Horry County has seen a steady number of serious traffic incidents on major corridors that connect Conway to surrounding areas. Highway 378 serves as a key route for commuters, commercial traffic, and travelers moving between inland communities and coastal destinations.

High speeds combined with limited lighting conditions can make crashes on this roadway especially dangerous.

When a traffic accident is caused by careless or reckless driving, South Carolina law gives injured victims the right to seek financial recovery. Compensation may be available for medical bills, lost income, ongoing rehabilitation, and the physical and emotional toll that often follows a serious collision.

Having knowledgeable legal support during this process can make a meaningful difference.
