Victim Stuck Inside Car After Aliso Viejo Crash

A man reportedly was stuck inside a car that had been involved in a two-car, Orange County collision, in the City of Aliso Viejo.  According to a story in the Orange County Register, one of the vehicles struck a pole, which then apparently fell on top of the car.  The collision was reported at 6:26 p.m. on June 10th at the intersection of Aliso Creek Road and Pacific Park Drive.  It was one of several car accidents reported at that intersection during the past week.

See the Register story HERE.

Aliso Creek Road, in Aliso Viejo, has been the location of a number of serious automobile accidents in the past.  By way of example, going back more than 16 years, a horribly tragic auto accident occurred on Aliso Creek Road, just south of its intersection with Windsong.  That two-car collision claimed the lives of 3 teenagers, ages 14, 15 and 16.  The 16 year-old driver lost control of his Ford Mustang in a curve, causing it to slide into opposing traffic lanes where it was struck by an oncoming Camaro.  All three occupants of the Mustang (the male driver and two female passengers) were killed instantly, in one of the most heart wrenching accidents in South Orange County history.  Neither drugs nor alcohol were involved in the happening of that accident.  See the related LA Times article HERE.

Compensation for the victims of automobile accidents caused by a driver’s negligence and/or a dangerous roadway, should be an important concern for all Californians.  When a careless driver negligently or recklessly causes a traffic accident and serious injuries or death result, the driver should be held accountable.  Where a dangerous roadway causes or contributes to the occurrence of an accident, the public entity should be held  liable as well.  An Orange County auto accident attorney with experience at handling such cases can make a fair assessment of these claims.  Mr. Ralph has 20 years of experience handling personal injury cases, including those involving dangerous roadways.  He can be reached at 714-919-4415 for a FREE CONSULTATION.
