Car Accidents in Los Angeles

Los Angeles sees more car crashes than almost any other city in California. With its dense traffic and complex freeway system, accidents are common on roads like I-10 and I-5.

According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, Los Angeles County reported over 88,000 injury-related car accidents in 2022. Of those, many happened on major highways, where high speeds and heavy congestion increase the risk of serious collisions.

Some of the most common causes of these crashes include distracted driving, speeding, unsafe lane changes, and driving under the influence. Intersections and freeway interchanges, like the one near Boyle Heights where this crash occurred, can be especially dangerous due to frequent merging and heavy traffic flow.

Even minor crashes can lead to hospital visits, medical expenses, and time off work. When injuries happen, victims may face unexpected costs and emotional stress. A personal injury lawyer can help victims understand their legal rights and pursue compensation. This may include coverage for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
