San Clemente, CA – Multiple People Injured after Pickup Truck Causes Chain Reaction Crash on Camino De Los Mares and Avenida Vaquero

San Clemente, CA (August 13, 2018) – Local authorities reported that multiple victims sustained injuries as the result of an accident involving a pickup truck and parked vehicle that took place along Camino De Los Mares and Avenida Vaquero. The collision happened at approximately 2:30 PM in the afternoon on Sunday, August 12, 2018. At this point, no detailed information concerning the identities of the people involved in the crash has been revealed.

Based on the initial reports, a 2016 Dodge pickup truck was heading east on Camino De Los Mares and, without warning, swerved across the road and into the center divider on Avenida Vaquero. As a result of the impact, the truck careened into a nearby light pole and slid into four vehicles parked along the main road. Without warning, a chain reaction occurred, forcing the cars to plow into two bicyclists and one pedestrian.

Sometime later, medical personnel brought the three victims to a nearby hospital. Officials confirmed two patients required transportation via air ambulance due to severe injuries sustained during the impact.

Presently, investigators are looking into a cause of the crash.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents in San Clemente

Given the circumstances, police have still not determined what caused the pickup truck to swerve out of control and crash into the group of parked cars, ultimately resulting in the collision with the pedestrian and the bicyclist. As the investigation continues, officials will consider if drugs, alcohol, negligence, recklessness, or distracted driving played any role in the events leading up to the crash. Likewise, forensic teams will inspect the truck and examine photos of the crash site to determine if the driver had experienced mechanical failure or a system malfunction prior to the accident.

The non-guilty injured victims of the crash may have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit, pending the results of the investigation. By seeking the assistance of a professional lawyer, these individuals can receive compensation for multiple inconveniences including medical bills and painful injuries.
