Riverside Accident Info.

Riverside’s nickname is the “City of Arts and Innovation.” Originally, it was named due to its location next to the Santa Ana River. This county is where the citrus industry began in California.

Riverside has moved on into becoming a famous commercial hub. (Roger, Vincent (November 15, 2007) “Inland Empire warehouse deals'). Shipping, warehousing, and receiving is its forte.

What this means to travelers is there is a high level of the trucking and locomotive activity in this area. Sometimes we hear about fatal commercial shipping accidents here on TV news.

A Lower Income Town.

Today, Riverside is a place where may lower-income people live. The housing is much more affordable than in LA. Many people are forced to commute in terrible traffic on the 91 and 55 Freeways. Commuters do this to get to and from work in Los Angeles, or Orange County.

The traffic is horrible. And there are lots of collisions. Bumper to bumper traffic and texting drivers cause a lot of rear enders.

Lower Incomes Mean Little or No Auto Liability Insurance?

True! Many people here get the bare minimum liability insurance, assuming they have any at all. (Perault, Mike (May 5, 2010) “State Offers Low-Cost Insurance"). So we have a situation with many under-insured commuters, or with drivers not insured at all.

These people are driving far from home to get to a low paying job in LA for example. In some drunk driving cases, criminal defendants may not have wages that are garnish-able. In fact, they are barely making ends meet.

So you can see right away why many lawyers would not sign you up as an injured client. After all, unless there is adequate insurance, many cases are non-starters in Riverside. How is a lawyer going to get you compensation from someone with no assets to speak of?

So think about all this whenever you get on the Riverside 91, the 15, or the 215 roadways. Be safe out there and consider getting additional coverage for yourself.

What About Off Peak Traffic Issues in Riverside?

Also consider that during off-peak times, there is much less traffic in the suburban areas. Contrast this with beachside areas like Santa Monica. The combination of densely packed housing and fast speeds on freeways is horrific.

The roadways are filled with lots of families with children at any given time. Plus, there are many bus stops with moms and their kids standing around as pedestrians. Many children are crossing the street.

There are also retired elders ingressing and egressing from buses, for example. Other magnets to attract accidents are the distracting holidays in Riverside. The holiday season in Riverside is spectacular with its famous Riverside Festival of Lights.

In fact, there are over three and one-half million twinkling lights. In legal parlance, these are also known as distractions for drivers. The city attracts its fair share of traffic from rookie loos too.

It also attracts commercial trucking and tour busing. Many of these people are not familiar with driving in Riverside.

Accident Statistics in Riverside County

Riverside is a bustling city and county. It may appear to be a great place to live and visit. But accidents resulting in serious injury and deaths can occur, and often do. One of the memorable serious accidents took place in 2010 on April 11th.

In that case, a drunk driver jumped the curb on one of the streets. He hit a seventeen-year-old girl and a toddler with her. (Nielsen, Jacob (Sept 4, 2012.) “Car Drives Onto Sidewalk, Kills 5 Year Old Girl.“) The girl suffered severe injuries, including the severing of one leg.

And the toddler was not any more fortunate, suffering head injuries and internal injuries. This calamity changed both of their lives forever. Instead of attending college in the fall of that year, the girl was fitted for a prosthetic leg. 

She was learning how to walk with it after the amputation. (Ehline, Michael (2008) “About Amputation"). Above are just a few of the many unhappy conclusions that have happened in Riverside.
