Driver Hurt in Rollover Accident

An early morning accident resulted in the hospitalization of a woman after a collision caused her vehicle to rollover. The wreck happened around 6:00 a.m. when the victim was travelling west on Northeast Marine Drive along the Columbia River. A car going east on the two-lane road drifted over the center line and sideswiped the victim's car. The victim lost control of her car after the impact and veered to the right towards the river. The car rolled over several times down the embankment before coming to a rest on the bike path. Luckily, the car did not end up in the water. The driver of the car that drifted over the center line remained on the scene and called emergency services. Portland Police and paramedics arrived whereupon the driver of the car that rolled over was transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Initial reports from investigators state that neither intoxication nor distracted driving is thought to be a factor. Speak with a personal injury attorney to make sure you are aware of your rights if you were hurt in a crash that wasn't your fault.

Compensation for Your Injuries and Expenses

When someone else causes a car accident then he or she should be held fully responsible for all damages suffered by others as a result. Driver error, fatigue, drunk driving, texting while driving, speeding, aggressive driving, defective products and mechanical malfunctions can all cause serious injury crashes and fatalities. No matter the specifics of how someone else's negligence caused a wreck, you may be able to recover financial damages and other compensation to cover medical bills, hospitalization, property damages, pain, lost wages and more. A knowledgeable legal professional may be able to help you with your claim.
