Car Accidents in California

With over 400,000 traffic incidents reported annually, California ranks among the highest in the nation for motor vehicle crashes. Multi-vehicle collisions and rollover crashes, like those on the freeway, are particularly dangerous. These types of accidents often occur at high speeds and involve a chain reaction of impacts, increasing the risk of injury or death.

Here are some of the difficulties crash victims may encounter after such a major incident:

• High-Speed Impacts and Rollover Risk: When vehicles collide at freeway speeds, the chances of one or more flipping increase. Rollover crashes often result in head trauma, broken bones, or spinal cord injuries.
• Unclear Liability: In multi-vehicle accidents, establishing fault can be challenging. Drivers, insurers, and even third parties may dispute what happened, requiring detailed investigations and legal support.
• Crash Scene Complexity: Multiple overturned vehicles may scatter debris, causing secondary accidents. Emergency crews must secure the area to avoid additional injuries.
• Insurance Delays and Disputes: Insurers may delay claims, argue comparative fault, or provide lowball settlement offers, especially when more than one vehicle is involved.
• Post-Crash Anxiety and PTSD: Survivors of violent accidents often struggle with emotional trauma, including anxiety about driving or flashbacks. These mental health concerns are real and should be addressed in a claim.

If you or someone you love has been involved in a major freeway crash, don’t wait to contact a Los Angeles car accident attorney.
