subject: Multi-vehicle Accident Source Of Personal Injury For At Least Twelve In Brooklyn [print this page] The New York Post recently reported on an accident that occurred in Brooklyn that involved a city bus, a truck, and a car. At least 12 individuals sustained personal injury in that accident. According to reports, the accident was spawned by a truck and ran a red light and crashed into a car. As the bus came upon the accident, it swerved to avoid hitting either of the two vehicles, and in so doing, crashed into a building.
The Brooklyn Police Department reported that the injury-related accident occurred on Avenue J in mid-morning traffic. The truck that ran the red light was on Ocean Avenue and the car, a Toyota Corolla, was travelling on Avenue J. The truck rolled onto its side as a result of the accident. The bus was also on Avenue J when it swerved and careened into an apartment complex.
Though it was fortunate that no pedestrians on the streets of Brooklyn sustained any sort of personal injury as a result of the three-car accident, passengers from all three vehicles did suffer one form of injury or another. The majority of the injury victims were taken to one of three major hospitals in the Brooklyn area. A few who had sustained only minor injury were treated at the accident site. Twelve people were identified has having an injury at the time of the accident.
The rapidity with which three vehicles went from driving on Brooklyn streets to being overturned, smashed up, or both in conjunction with the number of personal injury victims that resulted is a frightening reminder of the possibility that any of us could be an injury victim in just seconds while traveling in Brooklyn or throughout any of the crowded boroughs of New York. Despite all of the safety features present in our cars, there is often little that can protect us when our vehicles collide at high speeds into a mass of metal and glass.
When an accident is truly an accident, it can be devastating, but it is easier to acknowledge that sometimes accidents happen and we try to move on. However, when an accident that results in injury to a dozen people is caused by the negligence of someone running a red light, it is harder to find that closure. Our sense of justice seems to demand that the person responsible be held accountable. If you have suffered an injury in Brooklyn, you can obtain that sense of justice by contacting a personal injury lawyer in Brooklyn. Your lawyer will help you to find closure and to see justice served by pursuing those responsible so that you can receive the compensation that you deserve.
