[05-07-2024] Los Angeles County, CA – Four People Hospitalized Following Two-Vehicle Crash Along McClure Tunnel in Santa Monica

[05-07-2024] Four People Hospitalized Following Two-Vehicle Crash Along McClure Tunnel in Santa MonicaFour people were hospitalized following a two-vehicle crash in Santa Monica on Tuesday afternoon, May 7, 2024.

According to the Santa Monica Police Department, the traffic collision happened at about 2:30 p.m. along the McClure Tunnel, which connects the 10 Freeway and the Pacific Coast Highway.

Early reports suggest that a black Dodge Challenger, for still-unknown reasons, flipped over the concrete median barricade. This then resulted in a collision with an oncoming G-Class Mercedes SUV that reportedly tried to avoid but failed.

Police said that four people were transported with non-life-threatening injuries. The victims’ names, ages, and places of origin were not immediately disclosed.

All lanes of the 10 Freeway going into the McClure Tunnel were closed momentarily as a precaution.

No further details were readily available. The authorities are still gathering all the necessary information to determine the cause of the incident.

Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?

Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:

  • Check yourself for any injuries.
  • Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
  • Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
  • Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
  • Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
  • Seek immediate medical attention.
  • Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.

What A Lawyer Can Do For You

Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
