Steven M. Sweat's insight:

Steven M. Sweat's insight:

These multi car freeway accidents are, thankfully, not as frequent as one might think but, when the do happen, they usually result in major injuries and or fatalities.  Fault in this types of freeway traffic collisions usually lies with one or more of three things: (1) Following too closely or "tailgating" in violation of Californai Vehicle Code section 21703; (2) Making an unsafe lane change in violation of California Vehicle Code section 21658; or (3) Traveling at an unsafe speed for road conditions including traffic congestion in violation of California Vehicle Code 22350.
