Motor vehicle accidents: 2 injured in rear-end crash

In some cases, it may take little more than a brief patch of rainy weather to affect the capabilities of all nearby drivers. Those who do not adjust their driving behaviors to match weather conditions run a higher chance of causing motor vehicle accidents to occur. Two people were rushed to a medical facility following a recent rear-end crash that forced one vehicle to veer across oncoming lanes and off the opposite side of the road in West Virginia.

According to reports, the accident took place just before 6 p.m. on a recent Monday. For reasons that remain unclear, the driver of a westbound car suddenly slammed into the rear-end of a second vehicle. The initial impact reportedly forced the second vehicle to veer through the median and across opposite lanes of traffic before crashing into a nearby embankment.

Emergency responders have advised that as many as two individuals involved in the crashed suffered injuries and were both transported to the hospital for medical care. Authorities also say that westbound lanes were closed for several hours while an investigation into the incident was ongoing. However, no further information was provided as to what might have prompted the rear-end crash to take place.

Individuals who suffer serious harm in motor vehicle accidents due to the actions of another driver may encounter a variety of challenges in life. Following the crash, those who wish to better understand their available options for legal recourse could find it helpful to consult with an attorney as soon as possible. An attorney in West Virginia can evaluate the incident, along with a client’s injuries and financial needs, and assist him or her in pursuing the compensation entitled through a personal injury claim.
