Overnight Crash Near Epcot Injures Several, Closes Lanes
Authorities have not released details about the victims or cause.
Overview
- The crash, reported around 12:45 a.m. Thursday, brought Orange County responders to EPCOT Center Drive at East Buena Vista Drive on Walt Disney World property.
- Dispatch logs indicated injuries to several people, though officials have not released the number or conditions.
- Southbound EPCOT Center Drive came to a standstill, according to a guest on X, with lanes reopening by morning.
- Early information came from a police-scanner account and guest social posts rather than official statements from Disney or law enforcement.
- The intersection sits just outside the EPCOT gates, so closures there can slow access for park visitors during an overnight response.
