Five Injured in Car Accident

|

A collision involving three cars took place in Southwest Bexar County, which resulted in five injured people. Around noon, a police officer was making a U-turn while giving a ride to a man when he was hit by a pickup truck. Tragically, after being struck, the SUV of the police officer traveled across the highway and collided with another pickup truck. The pickup truck had a trailer attached to the back of it. The police officer was taken to a hospital for medical care. He was in critical condition. Additionally, the four people that were in the first pickup truck to collide with the SUV were taken to get medical care.

Vehicle accidents are both tragic and widely common. They occur for a number of reasons and range in degree of severity. Some of the top reasons vehicle accidents occur are: speeding, driving while intoxicated, driving distractedly, and driver fatigue. Often times, there are several parties in the vehicle accident. These parties are known as the negligent party and the victims. A person is considered negligent when they have carried out an action that resulted in the injury of another person. If you are a victim in a vehicle accident, you can often press charges against the negligent party, with the help of an attorney, if there is evidence to support your case.
