    LOS ANGELES, CA (NOVEMBER 12, 2023): At least seven people were injured in a multi-vehicle crash near L.A. Coliseum last week.

    According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the incident occurred on Friday, November 10th near the intersection of Vermont Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, in the Vermont Square neighborhood of Los Angeles. Authorities received reports of a crash involving six vehicles near the Coliseum just before 8:45 p.m. and arrived on the scene shortly after.

    Upon arrival, emergency personnel discovered a large pile up of vehicles which has sustained various damage from the impact of the collision. Preliminary reports indicate that officers were in pursuit in an attempt to stop a reckless driver when the crash occurred.

    Photos from the scene capture three vehicles with extensive front-end damage, two of which appear to have collided head-on.

    Paramedics treated five people with serious injuries on the scene, all of which were then rushed to an area hospital for further treatment. Two victims suffered only minor injuries, and did not require hospitalization. The exact injuries nor their extent were reported by authorities.

    While circumstances remain unclear, witness statements offered some insight as to the cause of this unfortunate accident. One individual claimed they heard police sirens before a vehicle careened onto the wrong side of the road, presumable causing the collision. It is unknown if any of the other impacted vehicles were involved in the police pursuit preceding the collision.

    An investigation into this multi-vehicle crash near the L.A. Coliseum is underway to determine cause.

    Liability In Los Angeles Car Accidents

    Despite improved safety measures for cars, motor vehicle accidents remain one of the leading causes of serious injury and death in the United States.  According to the CDC, “more than 32,000 people are killed and 2 million are injured each year from motor vehicle crashes.” There are a number of factors that could potentially contribute to a car accident including:

    • Speeding
    • Distracted driving
    • Inclement weather
    • Dangerous turns
    • Poorly designed roadways

    All drivers have a legal obligation to exercise due care in order to avoid causing accidents. This is especially true for commercial drivers that work for a city. A number of collisions are due to drivers that make dangerous left turns. Pursuant to California Vehicle Code 21801, the driver of any vehicle intending to turn left must yield the right of way traveling from the opposite direction close enough to pose a hazard.

    If a negligent driver worked for a city, that city could potentially be liable in the event of an accident. Generally speaking, employers are vicariously liable for the negligent actions of their employees – insofar as those employees were working within the course and scope of their job duties. There are a number of steps that should be taken after a car accident.

    • Photos of the accident site should be taken.
    • Surveillance footage should be sought.
    • Medical records should be preserved.
    • Eye witnesses should be interviewed.
    • A thorough independent investigation should be conducted.

    The family of any victim that has died in a car accident may have legal recourse through a bodily injury claim. Damages in a civil claim can help cover lost wages, medical bills and funeral expenses. It is essential that evidence is properly preserved after a car accident. A car accident attorney can examine all of the facts of your case and let you know what your legal options are.
