Washington State Police reported a multi-car accident which closed Highway 395. A Subaru driving northbound drifted into the left turning lane hitting a Corolla. The Corolla was pushed forward from impact and struck a Subaru Legacy. The Corolla then entered into the southbound lane of traffic where it was struck by a pickup truck and then hit another vehicle which was waiting to turn left. Of all five vehicles involved in this car crash, only three were reportedly injured. Those injured were taken to a nearby hospital for evaluation of injuries.
About 15 percent of all fatal accidents in the U.S. involve multiple vehicle accidents. In addition, nearly 13,000 injuries are reported each year from these types of accidents. When a car accident involves multiple vehicles, they become much more dangerous. Injuries may be sustained from both primary and secondary points of impact. A primary impact happens when a negligent driver crashes into another vehicle. A secondary point of impact occurs when other drivers try to avoid the crash but often end up hitting one another. When there are multiple points of impact, chances are serious injuries or even death are more likely to occur.
Multi-car accidents make the case much more complex because there are potentially several plaintiffs, defendants, and car insurance companies involved.
