LOS ANGELES, California (June 18, 2013) – One person was injured in a crash between the drivers of a Volkswagen and a truck hauling a boat trailer and several other vehicles took place Tuesday afternoon on the northbound Interstate 405 freeway at La Cienega Boulevard off ramp, according to a dispatch report issued by the California Highway Patrol.

About 3:20 p.m., CHP officers reported there were four or five vehicles involved in a crash in the Nos. 1 and 2 lanes. A silver Mercedes was also involved in the collision and was blocking the No. 1 lane. The Los Angeles County Fire Department was called to the scene to treat one person who was complaining of pain.

The CHP is investigating the multivehicle crash to determine liability. Anyone who is injured in a crash due to someone else’s fault may file a claim with the wrongful driver’s insurance to request compensation for their injuries and financial losses due to the crash, said Attorney West Seegmiller.

“If you are injured in a car crash – seek medical attention immediately and contact an experienced personal injury attorney,” Seegmiller said.

HOLLYWOOD, California (June 18, 2013) – A paparazzo photographer injured his leg Monday night after he was struck by a white Ferrari allegedly driven by pop singer Justin Bieber outside the Laugh Factory at Sunset Boulevard and Crescent Heights, according to a CBS News report.

According to the news report, Bieber’s Ferrari was surrounded by photographers who were trying to snap his photograph as he was leaving the comedy club, but as he attempted to drive away the pinned one of them between his car and a parked vehicle.

The injured photographer was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of injuries to his left leg and is expected to survive the accident, however, it is not know whether police will charge Bieber for the incident.

“Drivers who cause an injury accident are required to exchange information with the victim and report the accident to police,” said Attorney West Seegmiller. “The driver will be liable for injuries caused to the photographer pedestrian and police may also press criminal charges if they determine Bieber fled the scene of the crash.”

California Pedestrian Accident Laws

Under California Vehicle Code Section 21950 (a) a driver must yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection, said Attorney West Seegmiller, a California and Las Vegas wrongful death attorney. Also, drivers are required to slow down when a pedestrian is in the roadway and be alert for any crossings.

“There are exceptions in the law, however, such as pedestrians are required to watch out for their own safety,” Seemiller said. “This means they cannot suddenly leave a curb and walk or run into the path of a vehicle. Also, pedestrians should not unnecessarily stop or delay traffic while in a marked or unmarked crosswalk.”

However, if a pedestrian does step into the roadway suddenly the driver must still make every effort to safely stop or avoid hitting them whether it’s a marked or unmarked crosswalk, Seegmiller said.
