Tulare County, CA – A 24-year-old man from Tulare sustained serious injuries after crashing and rolling his Chevrolet Silverado early Sunday morning, October 20, 2024, according to KSEE.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reports that the accident occurred around 2:00 AM near Road 140 and Avenue 216.
Investigators report that the man was driving the Silverado southbound when, for reasons yet unknown, the truck veered off the west edge of the road. The vehicle then collided with a power pole, causing significant damage and leading to the rollover.
The driver was rushed to Kaweah Health Medical Center with major injuries. While his condition remains serious, authorities have not released further updates on his recovery.
CHP is investigating whether drugs or alcohol may have contributed to the crash, though no official conclusions have been made. No additional information about the incident is available at this time as the investigation continues.
Liability in Single-Vehicle Collisions
In some cases, investigations may reveal that even in a single-vehicle accident, nearby drivers or unsafe road features share some responsibility. A personal injury attorney plays a critical role in sorting through these details to help victims and their families get the compensation they deserve.
Once liability is determined, the attorney can negotiate with insurance companies, who often try to reduce payouts. That means having legal representation can be vital to ensure victims receive fair compensation for their loss.
