Madera County, CA – According to KSEE, on Friday, March 15, 2024, a man was hospitalized after a solo-vehicle crash in an almond orchard.
According to investigations, a white sedan was traveling at a high rate of speed on Northbound 30 ½ and lost control north of Avenue 11. The vehicle left the road and entered an almond orchard where it overturned and collided with one of the trees.
The driver received transportation to a nearby hospital for his injuries. The California Highway Patrol suspect that intoxication may have been a factor.
Liability in Single-Vehicle Collisions
In some circumstances, investigations can reveal that some portion of the liability for a single-vehicle collision might fall upon other drivers in the vicinity of the accident or even unsafe roadway structures. Working through the particulars of liability to help victims and their families find proper compensation is one of the many services a personal injury attorney can provide.
Once liability has been established, a personal injury attorney can also negotiate on behalf of the victim with insurance companies, who will always seek to minimize the payout for any claim they cannot deny.
