Car Accidents in Virginia
Intersections and roadways near major transportation hubs, such as Richmond International Airport, often experience a higher volume of traffic, increasing the likelihood of collisions. In accidents like the one at South Airport Drive and Norman Road, vehicles leaving the roadway or ending up on medians suggest potential contributing factors such as excessive speed, distracted driving, or loss of control.
Virginia law requires all drivers to remain attentive and yield appropriately to prevent dangerous collisions. When crashes result in injuries, it is crucial for those involved to seek medical evaluation, even if injuries seem minor at first. Internal trauma, whiplash, and concussions may not be immediately noticeable but can have long-term effects.
In the aftermath of an accident, victims may face medical bills, lost wages, and rehabilitation costs. Understanding available legal options can help injured individuals recover the compensation they need to move forward.
