Accidents involving parked vehicles, such as Monday morning’s crash in Gardena, can still result in significant injuries and damage. Even low-speed impacts can cause serious harm if a driver or passenger is ejected or exits their vehicle in unsafe conditions.
Intersections and residential streets require extra caution, especially at night when visibility is reduced. Impaired driving, distraction, or excessive speed can increase the likelihood of striking a stationary vehicle.
Local Accident Reports urges drivers to remain alert, obey speed limits, and avoid distractions to reduce the risk of injury collisions.
