Freeway Accidents in California
California’s extensive freeway system is a hub for high-speed travel, but it also presents risks for serious vehicle crashes. With heavy commuter traffic, frequent lane changes, and high-speed limits, incidents at freeway on-ramps and interchanges are common.
Collisions on highways often result in significant injuries due to the speed at which vehicles travel. Factors such as distracted driving, reckless lane merging, and driver fatigue contribute to the frequency of these incidents. In some cases, victims may have legal options to pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
If you or someone you love has been injured in a freeway accident, seeking guidance on legal options can help you understand your rights.
