Detroit, MI (October 21, 2023) – At least one person was hurt in a crash involving two or three drivers on a local roadway in Detroit on the evening of Saturday, October 21.

An Accident occurred at about 7:30 p.m. in the area of westbound Interstate 696 after Orchard Lake Road. When first responders and local officers arrived, they determined that at least two vehicles had been involved in the collision, with the possibility that a third vehicle was also involved. That said, authorities have yet to piece together what led to the crash.

Although EMTs were sent to the site to evaluate the injured victims, the extent of their injuries and the current status of the victims have not been made public.

Detroit authorities are continuing their investigation but have not provided any additional details at this time.

The injured and their families are in our thoughts at this time.

Multi-Vehicle Crashes in Detroit

Somewhere in the United States, an automotive accident occurs every few seconds, as reported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Most personal injury lawsuits now being examined in our courts are linked to automobile accidents, which is not surprising given the dismal statistics for both Michigan and the United States.

If you’ve been in a car crash, even if the facts are straightforward and you don’t think you’re gravely harmed, you should still see a legal professional. Evidence suggests that having legal representation may boost a plaintiff’s financial recovery in court. Many victims, understandably, are concerned about how much it would cost to hire an attorney. However, most attorneys who specialize in personal injuries work on a contingency fee basis.

You should consult an attorney if you or a loved one has suffered a personal injury. Your attorney will serve as your primary representation in all dealings with the insurance company and any other involved parties. You can trust your lawyer to look into the situation carefully, track down the responsible people, and provide you with a solid case for financial recompense. The information needed might then be gleaned by questioning potential witnesses.
