Pittsburg, CA - Two Killed, Five Injured in Two-Car Crash on W Leland Rd at John Henry Johnson Pkwy

Pittsburg, CA (April 14, 2021) – An adult and a child were killed and five other people, including children of ages 1, 4, and 10, sustained serious injuries in a crash that occurred on Monday evening, April 12.

The driver who allegedly caused the accident was uninjured, and investigators said he showed signs of impairment when he spoke to officers. He was arrested and booked into Martinez County Jail on suspicion of felony gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, felony driving under the influence resulting in bodily injury, and probation violation.

The crash took place around 6:00 p.m. on West Leland Road, east of John Henry Johnson Parkway. Investigators said that a Toyota Corolla and a Chevrolet Camaro, which was driven by the suspect, were both in eastbound lanes when the Camaro, traveling at high speed, rear-ended the Corolla. The Corolla’s driver then lost control as a result of the collision and struck several trees, authorities said. The driver of the Corolla was pronounced dead at the scene and one of their passengers suffered major injuries.

Three children were ejected from the Corolla’s back seat, including a 1-year-old who was in a car seat, as well as a 4-year-old and a 7-year-old.

The 7-year-old was transported to UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital Oakland, where she was pronounced dead. The two other children ejected from the Corolla were hospitalized with serious injuries. Two passengers from the Camaro were hospitalized, including a 10-year-old child.

The accident remains under investigation, and no further details have been released.

Our deepest condolences go out to the families of the deceased victims. Our thoughts are with any injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.

Bicycle Accidents in California

Lafayette, CA - One Injured in Bicycle Accident at Pleasant Hill Rd & Olympic Blvd

According to data released by the California Department of Transportation, deadly bike injuries are on the rise throughout the state. In fact, more than 60% of fatal bicycle crashes were caused by distracted drivers hitting cyclists, even when riders used bike lanes or the sidewalk to observe traffic regulations. Furthermore, cyclists are particularly vulnerable to serious injury or death after a bike crash. Due to the fact that bicyclists do not have the protection of passenger vehicles, riders may be subject to more severe consequences as a result of an accident.

These serious bike accidents causing injuries or even fatalities are an unfortunately common part of life in California, particularly in busy metro locations like the Bay Area. When multiple victims are injured in an accident, they may have to deal with other drivers' insurance companies, long-term physical pain, and expensive hospital bills. Occasionally, as a result of these incidents, victims succumb to their injuries, leaving their grieving families to cope with emotional trauma and financial difficulties as a result of another driver's negligence.

But the victims and their families affected by these wrecks can seek help from a California wrongful death attorney. A skilled attorney in California can help victims seek justice and the fair compensation they deserve after suffering in an accident that occurred through no fault of their own.

San Jose, CA (March 29, 2021) – A San Jose man was killed on Saturday night after a wrong-way crash occurred on Highway 101, troopers with the California Highway Patrol said.

The crash was reported around 11:10 p.m. A 24-year-old Santa Maria man was driving a Chevrolet Tahoe southbound in the northbound lanes after entering the freeway from the Tefft Street off-ramp. The Tahoe then crashed head-on into a Honda CR-V driven by a 44-year-old San Jose man.

The CR-V flipped and landed on its roof in the median, ejecting one of the two passengers inside. The driver was transported to a Santa Maria hospital via ambulance but later died. His name has not yet been released. The two passengers suffered major injuries and were also taken to a hospital.

The alleged wrong-way driver fled on foot, but the CHP used a helicopter and ground units to apprehend him. The suspect was treated for minor injuries and charged with suspicion of felony DUI causing bodily injury, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, fatal hit-and-run, and grand theft.

The accident remains under investigation.

Our deepest condolences go out to the family of the deceased victim. Our thoughts are with the injured victims in hopes of a full recovery.

Wrong-Way Accidents in California

San Jose, CA - One Killed, Two Seriously Injured in Wrong-Way Crash on Hwy 101 at Tefft St

Nearly 35,000 traffic accidents resulted in fatalities, major injuries, or minor injuries on Bay Area roadways over the last several years. As a result, thousands of lives are lost every year on California's highways, major thoroughfares connecting large city centers, local streets, and beyond. Furthermore, the large number of suburbs and city centers in Northern California means more traffic and drivers on the road, making serious accidents like wrong-way incidents or catastrophic multi-vehicle crashes more common.

Serious car accidents causing injuries or even fatalities are an unfortunate part of life in California. When multiple victims are injured in an accident, they may have to deal with other drivers' insurance companies, long-term physical pain, and expensive hospital bills. Occasionally, as a result of these incidents, victims succumb to their injuries, leaving their grieving families to cope with emotional trauma and financial difficulties as a result of another driver's negligence.

But the victims and their families affected by these wrecks can seek help from a California accident attorney. A skilled attorney in California can help victims seek justice and the fair compensation they deserve after suffering in an accident that occurred through no fault of their own.

Vacaville, CA (March 28, 2021) – Two people trapped in an overturned vehicle after a car crash were rescued by fire personnel on Interstate Highway 80 in Vacaville early Sunday morning, March 28.

Troopers with the California Highway Patrol responded around 5:45 a.m. to a report of a vehicle on its side about 75 feet off the roadway on westbound I-80. The accident occurred just west of Leisure Town Road. The driver and passenger, both conscious but seriously injured, were able to tell responders they were trapped inside the vehicle.
