A two-car crash disrupted the morning commute at Quince Orchard Road and Clopper Road in Gaithersburg, Maryland, on Tuesday, October 27, 2026. The collision occurred shortly after 8 a.m.
Two people were being evaluated for injuries described as non-life-threatening. Additional details about the nature or extent of their injuries were not provided.
Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson Pete Piringer reported the collision. Drivers were urged to avoid the intersection because of traffic delays in the area.
The collision was one of two crashes reported about three miles apart in Gaithersburg that morning. The other involved two vehicles at South Frederick Avenue, also known as Route 355, and South Westland Drive. That separate crash also occurred shortly after 8 a.m., and some lanes were blocked there. No information about possible injuries in the South Frederick Avenue collision was released.
People involved in a Gaithersburg crash can preserve available photographs, medical records and insurance correspondence for their records. A qualified attorney can explain how crash reports and other documentation may relate to an insurance claim, without assuming who was at fault.
