Six people including two pedestrians suffer injury in crash

On behalf of Michael J. Gaffney, Attorney at Law | Feb 7, 2019 | Car Accidents

New York is a busy city with vehicles and people needing to share the road. For the most part, this is achieved with everyone adhering to the law and the basic rules for safety. However, since there are so many motor vehicles on the road, it is inevitable that there will be auto accidents. In some of these crashes, innocent bystanders can be hit. With the injuries and potential fatalities that can come about after auto accidents, those who were hit must think about the future and consider a legal filing for compensation.

A two-vehicle accident in which one of the cars was T-boned led to six people — including two pedestrians — being injured and hospitalized. The accident happened in the evening at around 6:30 p.m. A Subaru was heading north and a Toyota was going west. The vehicles collided at the intersection. The Toyota was sent careening toward a residence. It hit two pedestrians.

The two drivers, two passengers and two pedestrians were all hospitalized. Four people suffered injuries that were said to be serious. The other two suffered minor injuries. The investigation into the crash is continuing.

In the blink of an eye, people can have their entire lives turned upside down. One minute, they are simply going about their business, and the next, they are heading to the hospital with broken bones, cuts, head injuries spinal cord damage and worse. Families can be negatively affected by a crash as much if not more than those who were injured in a crash. Given the litany of problems that can arise after a car accident — especially one in which pedestrians were hit — it is crucial for those who were affected to understand their rights and consider a legal filing. This can help with medical expenses, lost wages and other expenses.

A two-vehicle crash at an intersection sent six people to the hospital. As the case is investigated and it is determined exactly what happened, those who were hurt must think about their future. A law firm that is experienced in assisting people who have been in car accidents and understands the details of accident investigations can help with a case and should be called immediately.
