Vehicle Accidents in California
Studies show that the leading cause of most wrong-way accidents is driving under the influence, driving fatigued, and driving distracted. Other causes are driving in unfamiliar areas or driving where there are poorly marked ramps and signs. The most unfortunate aspect of wrong-way accidents is that most of the time they can be prevented if drivers chose to drive more responsibly.
The police are currently investigating this accident to determine why the truck driver was driving in the wrong direction. They’re checking to see if drugs, alcohol, or fatigue played a role, or if other external errors were the cause. Once they complete their investigation, it’s likely that personal injury lawsuits will be filed with the help of a California personal injury attorney.
