Single-Vehicle Accident Leaves Woman Trapped
Posted on Nov 6, 2012 11:45am PST
There are any number of circumstances and situations that can lead up to a car accident. In a
multi-vehicle accident it is often easier to determine which party is liable for the accident and resultant injuries. In a single-vehicle accident it may not be as black and white as most people are led to believe. Take the case of the woman who was driving north on S Sgt Macario Garcia Drive, right at Avenue W in East Houston, when her vehicle left the road and ended up slamming into a telephone pole. The impact of the crash was so severe that it crushed the woman's small car, trapping her inside.
In most cases, it would be assumed that the woman was entirely at fault for the accident that left her in critical condition. While that may be the case, other factors could have contributed to the accident. Her vehicle may have malfunctioned. Slick or improperly maintained roads could have caused her to swerve off the roadway. She may have attempted to avoid debris in the road, and overcompensated thus sending her into the pole.
