Arizona Accident Lawyers for Freeway Collisions
Many of the motor vehicle accidents that we receive calls for are from people who were seriously injured in a motor vehicle accident on the freeway. This is no surprise as there are many vehicles travelling on the freeways, especially during the morning commute and drivers who are going home after a long day of work. Freeways tend to be a place where there is a lot of traffic. Whenever there are accidents, almost always there are injuries.
When there is a lot of traffic, it seems there are more accidents. This is to be expected as drivers are looking around at other vehicles and are more distracted. Also, there tends to be all sorts of motor vehicles on the roadway, including many cars that are travelling at high speeds, drivers of commercial trucks who are tired and have been driving for a long stretch of hours, and other drivers who are in a rush to get to work or wherever they may be going. In short, freeways are one of the most dangerous places that we drive each day.
If you have been injured in a freeway accident, chances are that the police will come to the scene of the accident. Many times when the injuries are significant, the injured person might never have an opportunity to talk to the police because they are receiving medical care and being taken by ambulance to the hospital. When this happens, don't be surprised if the police do not get all the accurate facts. Remember, it is the person who most likely caused the accident who is explaining the story of the accident while the injured person is not there to tell their account of the accident events. Hopefully, witnesses will stop, but many times, witnesses have their own places they have to be and are unable to take the time to stop.
If you are injured in an Arizona freeway accident or have a loved one who has suffered a fatal injury, it is best to call an Arizona car accident lawyer. Some tips of advice for the injured who is taken to the hospital:
- Do not give a recorded statement.
- Make sure to tell the hospital you have health insurance.
- Do not go into the details of how the freeway accident happened until you speak to an experienced injury lawyer.
