Car Accidents in New Jersey
Two-car collisions, like the one reported on S 18th St in Newark, are among the most common types of roadway accidents. These crashes often result from distracted driving, speeding, failure to yield, or hazardous road conditions. In urban areas, limited visibility and frequent stop-and-go traffic can further increase accident risks.
Victims of car crashes may experience a range of injuries, from minor bruises to more severe conditions requiring hospitalization. Seeking immediate medical attention is essential, even when injuries appear minor at first, as some symptoms may not surface until hours or days later.
For those injured in car accidents, understanding their legal rights is crucial. Compensation may be available for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages caused by the crash.
