Serious Injury Crash on Charter Way

The Stockton Police Department reported a serious injury crash on Charter Way and Tillie Lewis Drive on the afternoon of July 21, 2022. The traffic collision took place at approximately 4:30 p.m. and was said to have involved a black Honda Civic sedan and a silver Acura sedan.

Details on the Serious Injury Crash on Charter Way in Stockton

Multiple Stockton PD vehicles arrived at the scene of the two-vehicle collision, including a paramedic vehicle and a Stockton Fire Department truck. Officials indicated that the Honda sustained damage to the driver’s side, and a wheel had fallen off after the crash. The Acura reportedly overturned and rested on its hood near the intersection.

A man suffered severe injuries in the collision and was transported to San Joaquin General Hospital for immediate treatment. A woman was also taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries described as minor. Information on what caused the two-vehicle collision on Charter Way was not immediately available due to an ongoing investigation.

Things to Expect from the Recovery Process for a Car Accident

A motor vehicle collision injury may result in lasting physical pain and emotional suffering. In addition to mounting medical expenses, the impact of lost earnings from missing work may be challenging to manage. This is especially true if an injured party is a primary provider for their family. When a crash occurs because of someone else’s negligent actions, an injured person may seek reimbursement for their losses through a personal injury claim. This case may seek compensation for medical bills, wage loss, etc.

While we would expect all drivers to have auto insurance, that is not always the case. The state of California has a high rate of uninsured motorists. That is why it is essential to have uninsured and underinsured motorist protection. This may help pay for losses not fully covered by the at-fault party. Our legal team recommends carrying at least $100,000 in UM and UIM coverage.

There is limited time to bring a personal injury case because of insurance deadliness and the general two-year statute of limitations. Failure to meet the filing criteria and deadlines may result in the court’s dismissal of the accident case. Therefore, it is essential to contact an injury attorney immediately.
