Petaluma, California (May 15, 2020) – A driver was seriously injured in a traffic accident on Thursday evening in Petaluma, according to police.

The crash occurred on Lakeville Highway and Pine View Way, at about 5:34 p.m., on May 14. Lakeville Highway is also known as  State Route 116.

According to the authorities, a white box truck was traveling eastbound on Lakeville Highway when it collided with a silver Lexus SUV trying to turn onto the highway from Pine View Way.

The truck was reportedly unable to stop in time, and it struck the driver’s side front fender of the Lexus.

First responders arrived at the scene and found the Lexus driver suffering from serious injuries. The driver was transported to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital for treatment.

The highway was closed for an unknown period due to the accident.

Drugs or alcohol were not believed to have contributed to the collision.

An investigation into the crash is underway.

Managing Partner and CEO Alpine Law Group, Mr. Arin Khodaverdian believes that truck accident claims are rarely straightforward regardless of the circumstances involved. “Liable insurance companies will often do everything possible to limit their out-of-pocket expenses by either devaluing or outright denying your claim and it is crucial, therefore, to have an experienced attorney on your side,” He said.

Mr. Khodaverdian has worked for many years as a wrongful death and personal injury attorney. He and his team of attorneys has helped thousands of injury victims and their families recover over $100 million in compensation. “In one case, we recovered a 7-figure settlement within 11 business days of being hired by the family of a victim who was killed by a negligent driver.”

Swift action by an experienced attorney helps preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and begin to pursue those responsible for the incident.
