The Serious Nature of Highway Collisions and Legal Considerations

Highway 99 has long been considered one of California’s most dangerous roadways, with frequent accidents caused by high speeds, heavy traffic, and sudden lane changes. Collisions that occur at freeway speeds often result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities.

Victims of such crashes may face lengthy hospital stays, multiple surgeries, and ongoing rehabilitation. The emotional trauma for families is equally significant, as they struggle to cope with uncertainty and the financial strain that often follows a serious accident.

Determining fault after a highway accident is critical to ensuring that victims and their families can obtain proper compensation. Investigators will review the circumstances of the crash, including whether either driver was speeding, impaired, distracted, or otherwise negligent. Roadway conditions, weather, and visibility may also play a role in how the accident occurred.

If negligence is established, victims or their families may have the right to pursue a personal injury or wrongful death claim to recover damages. These claims can cover medical bills, lost wages, long-term care needs, and compensation for pain and suffering.
