Two people were hurt in a crash Tuesday morning on Hwy 53 in the Town of Pigeon Falls, Wisconsin. According to the Trempealeau County Sheriff’s Office, the collision occurred around 7:30 a.m. on Sept. 1. Authorities reported that Stacey Lisowski was driving a white SUV that had stopped in the roadway while yielding for a school bus. A blue SUV driven by Addisyn Feyen was traveling north on Hwy 53 and struck the rear of the white SUV. The sheriff’s office said fog affected visibility. Lisowski was taken to Tri-County Memorial Hospital with injuries described as not life-threatening. Feyen had minor injuries and was released at the scene. The publicly reported information identifies fog conditions and the sequence of events described by authorities; the evidence will determine any further conclusions about how the collision occurred. What Makes This Incident Different This report involves a rear-end collision during foggy morning conditions, with one vehicle stopped while yielding for a school bus. Those circumstances can make a crash investigation more detailed than an ordinary collision review. Visibility conditions, the position of the stopped SUV, the approach of the northbound SUV, and the presence of the school bus may all help place the events in context. The report does not say that the school bus was struck or that anyone on the bus was injured. It does, however, make the stopped vehicle and the surrounding visibility conditions important facts for investigators to evaluate carefully. Questions Investigators May Examine Investigators may examine conditional questions such as: - What was the extent of visibility on Hwy 53 near the time of the crash? - How long had the white SUV been stopped while yielding for the school bus? - Where was the school bus in relation to the two SUVs when the impact occurred? - What could the drivers see as the blue SUV traveled north? - Do physical evidence, vehicle damage, roadway markings, or witness accounts clarify the vehicles’ movements? - Are there available records or video that help establish the sequence before impact? These are investigation questions, not conclusions. A police report, photographs, statements, and other available evidence may provide a fuller account of the collision. Evidence That May Need to Be Preserved After a Wisconsin injury crash, prompt preservation can matter because vehicles may be repaired, memories may fade, and recordings may be overwritten. Depending on what exists, useful materials may include: - The Trempealeau County Sheriff’s Office crash report and any supplemental reports - Photographs of both SUVs, their damage, the roadway, and visibility conditions - Video or photographs that may show the school bus, the vehicles, or the area near Hwy 53 - Statements from the drivers, bus occupants or operator, and other witnesses, if any - Vehicle inspection information, repair estimates, and damage documentation - Medical records and bills related to injuries and treatment - Documentation of missed work or other injury-related financial losses Preserving evidence does not establish fault. It can help injured people, insurers, and investigators evaluate what the available information actually shows. What Families Should Know People hurt in a Wisconsin vehicle crash may face medical appointments, insurance calls, vehicle issues, and financial pressure at the same time. It can be helpful to keep copies of medical paperwork, photographs, insurer communications, receipts, and notes about symptoms or time missed from work. An insurance adjuster may request a statement, medical authorization, or quick settlement before the full effect of an injury is known. Individuals should understand what they are being asked to sign and consider whether the proposed resolution accounts for documented losses. A settlement can affect the ability to seek additional payment later. Wisconsin generally applies legal filing deadlines to personal-injury claims, and the applicable deadline can depend on the claim and circumstances. Waiting can make it harder to preserve evidence and protect legal options. A lawyer can review the specific facts, available insurance coverage, and deadlines without promising any particular outcome.
