Olney Car Accident Sends Two People To Einstein Medical Center

Posted in Car Accidents on Friday, June 6, 2014.

Car accidents are a frequent occurrence in busy cities, such as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. When an auto accident occurs, the results can be devastating to those involved, who often suffer serious injuries, such as broken bones, head trauma, and back injury. These injuries can lead to temporary or permanent disability, paralysis or in some cases, death. The sad part about car accidents is that they are often caused by negligence, which compounds the grief of victims and their families.

A recent accident in the Olney section of Philadelphia began with colliding vehicles and ended with a crash into a parked car. According to reports, the accident, which happened in the early morning at a city intersection, had enough force to cause a car to tumble before landing on its roof and striking a parked car.

The driver inside the flipped vehicle was trapped as firefighters struggled to free the victim. Two other men sustained non-life threatening injuries and were both transported to a local hospital.

Authorities continue to investigate the cause of the accident.

Recovering from car accident injuries takes an undetermined amount of time and until the victims fully heal. Medical expenses for long-term care can be costly and cause a financial burden to injured victims and their families. Fortunately, car accident victims may file personal injury claims if the accident was caused by someone else’s fault or failure to exercise due caution. Victims who have decided to file a claim must gather substantial evidence to prove allegations and evidence collected by local authorities can also be used to further strengthen a claim.

Philadelphia car accident victims may seek legal assistance to ensure that their rights are protected throughout the legal process. A sound Philadelphia injury attorney can provide advice and representation which may lead to fair and just settlement for the plaintiff.
