At least one person was injured after a three-vehicle crash involving a commercial big rig in the Casa de Oro area, San Diego County, on Tuesday morning, September 10, 2024.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the collision occurred around 7:00 a.m. on the westbound 94 freeway when a commercial big rig slammed into the back of a truck, which then collided with a minivan.
The big rig rolled off the freeway and came to a stop on its side between the off-ramp and city streets, leaving a load that needed to be unloaded before it could be righted.
The diesel truck involved in the crash was leaking fuel, and both vehicles required additional handling to be cleared from the scene. The extent of injuries and the exact cause of the crash remain unclear.
There is no additional information immediately available.
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.
