Stockton, CA – Truck Crash on Arthur H. Breed, Jr Fwy Results in Injuries
Stockton, CA (August 8, 2020) – A semi-truck crash reported on Friday morning left at least one person injured in the Pleasanton area. On August 7, officers with the California Highway Patrol responded to the scene of a motor vehicle accident on the Arthur H. Breed, Jr Freeway (Interstate 580).
Reports provided by authorities show that a collision involving two vehicles and a semi-truck occurred on the interstate just west of the Interstate 680 entrance. The crash caused a major oil spill on the roadway, which prompted crews to spend an extended time at the scene clearing the road. At least one person involved in the crash was injured. The injured victims were rendered aid on-site and transported to area hospitals for further treatment of injuries. At this time, the crash remains under investigation.
Our thoughts are with the victims injured in this accident.
Truck Accidents in California
Each year, truck accidents leave more than 2,900 people injured in Southern California. Although most commercial vehicle accidents are preventable, they continue to have negative consequences for drivers sharing the road. Commercial vehicles are far larger than other vehicles sharing the road, which increases the chances of them causing serious injuries to victims involved in collisions with them. In many cases, victims sustain traumatic injuries that require hospitalization, therapy, and various types of medical treatment both immediately and long-term. The mental, physical, and emotional consequences of semi-truck accidents are often overwhelming. To make matters even worse, victims are often forced to spend tens of thousands of dollars on medical bills, go without wages from being unable to work, and forced to deal with various other financial burdens from their accidents. When victims are injured in collisions resulting from negligent and reckless drivers, they should reach out to a truck accident attorney in California as soon as possible.
