The force of a recent accident in Atlantic City was so much that it caused a traffic light to come down. The incident involved two vehicles, a car and a truck, at the Delaware and Arctic Avenues intersection. Very little was known about what caused the accident, but the incident resulted in at least one driver requiring medical care.
Accidents at intersections are very common. They can occur when one driver fails to yield the right of way to another driver. This may be due to speeding, confusion at the intersection, distraction, impairment, or numerous other factors. Police must work to fully understand what took place, obtaining any evidence possible to do so.
In some situations like this, both drivers may have different accounts of what took place, and that can complicate the process of knowing who is at fault. However, an Atlantic County car accident lawyer can help you find additional information and resources to build a strong case moving forward.

In this accident, only one driver was taken to the hospital and was said to have non-life-threatening injuries. Yet, that will still be an expensive trip, and coverage by insurance companies can sometimes be difficult to obtain.
