Detroit, MI (September 16, 2023) – On the evening of September 16, two vehicles crashed on Interstate 96 in Detroit, potentially injuring several people.
It seems that the multi-vehicle accident happened on the westbound side of the road, to the left of Evergreen Road. At 8:20 p.m., investigators from the Michigan State Police and the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office arrived and closed the highway’s center and right lanes.
At least two people were hurt and sent to the hospital, but we don’t yet know how bad their injuries are.
The investigation has yielded no additional details in the interim.
The injured victims and their loved ones are in our thoughts.
Vehicle Wrecks in the Great Lakes State
Even the most cautious driver risks being seriously hurt in a crash caused by another driver’s negligence on the highway or when traveling between cities.
Millions of people are hurt yearly due to traffic accidents, and it’s not only a problem in the Great Lakes region. In Southeast Michigan alone, the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning reports that there are over three million registered vehicles. There is an automobile crash somewhere in the state every two minutes. About 980 people died, and 76,000 were injured in Michigan in a single year.
There are several potential contributors to a vehicle crash, including intoxicated driving, reckless driving, and the violation of traffic laws. No matter who was at blame for the auto accident, it is imperative that you choose an attorney who will aggressively represent your interests throughout the proceedings.
Far too many motorists are under the false impression that they do not need legal representation. After a car accident, it may be wise to speak with a lawyer about your options and ensure you get any compensation to which you are entitled. A vehicle accident attorney can assist you in dealing with the insurance company and any possible objections to your claim and the legal repercussions of filing a personal injury lawsuit.
There are a few things you should do right away after an accident, and one of them is to get in touch with an experienced automobile accident attorney. First, get as much data as possible on the crash itself. Hiring a Detroit car accident attorney is the first step in pursuing your rightful compensation after you have reported the accident to the police and your insurance company.
