San Antonio local firefighters had to carefully extricate an injured woman from the wreckage after her vehicle overturned on Interstate 35, Wednesday morning.
According to the initial investigation, a sport utility vehicle was heading north on I-35 near Somerset Road when, for reasons that had not been determined yet, it went out of control and crashed into a guardrail. The SUV then landed on a grassy area after rolling over a number of times. Its driver, identified only as a woman, was trapped inside the wreckage when responding officers arrived at the scene. She was immediately taken to a hospital where she was listed in unknown condition. Emergency crews said that she’s bleeding from her head as she was being transported via ambulance.
Police are determining if speed may have played a role in the crash.
Our sincerest sympathies to the victim of this unfortunate accident. We pray for their full recovery as we hope that the San Antonio Police Department will do everything to bring those responsible to justice.
Drunk driving in Texas commonly result in a serious injury and sometimes, death. While accidents are fortuitous events that cannot be foreseen, they can be prevented if only drivers had simply put their complete attention on the road and taken their responsibility as drivers more seriously. This is why, despite conscious efforts by government to combat the increasing number of fatalities and injuries every year, crashes due to negligence is still on the rise.
While it can be difficult to remain calm in a situation like this, it is important to know that you can be entitled to compensation and claims following a collision. If you or your loved one has been injured in a car accident caused by a negligent party or someone who was driving recklessly, you may have a right to a fair compensation for the trauma you experienced and the injuries you have suffered.
