SANTA ANA, California (May 23, 2013) – A 3-vehicle injury car crash was blocking the Nos. 1 and 2 lanes of the southbound State Route 57 freeway at Tonner Canyon Road Thursday morning creating a SigAlert during the busy morning commute, according to a dispatch report issued by the California Highway Patrol.

About 7 a.m., CHP officials reported that at least one person was injured and paramedics were called to the scene of the multi-vehicle car accident.  The drivers of a red BMW, a white Ford Ranger and a gray Toyota Camry were exchanging insurance information among themselves upon the arrival of CHP officers. The number of people injured in the crash and the extent of their injuries was not reported in the dispatch report.

“The most common injuries sustained in a car crash involve a person’s neck and back,” said Attorney West Seegmiller. “These types of injuries may not require an ambulance at the scene of the crash as the symptoms typically don’t become apparent to the victim until the following day when the pain sets in. It’s important to seek early treatment to avoid future permanent pain and spine damage.”

WESTMINSTER, California (May 23, 2013) – A white maintenance truck overturned onto its side and collided with two other vehicles Thursday morning in the HOV and No. 1 lanes of the southbound Interstate 5 freeway near the Magnolia Avenue off ramp, according to a dispatch report issued by the California Highway Patrol.

About 7:20 a.m., CHP officials reported a possible solo vehicle traffic accident involving the overturned truck, but within minutes of the initial report police said there were two other vehicles involved in the accident. Following the truck crash, the HOV lane and the Nos. 1 and 2 lanes were all blocked by the 3-vehicle wreck. CHP officers issued a SigAlert about 7:30 a.m. for about 45 minutes as the wreck was cleared from the roadway, the report said.

Paramedics were called to the scene of the truck accident, but the number of people injured was not disclosed. Police will investigate the crash to determine liability.

“Anyone who is injured in a car crash due to someone else’s negligence may recover their financial losses, however, it is important to have legal representation to ensure full compensation for present and future medical care,” said Attorney West Seegmiller, an Orange County personal injury lawyer.
