Our client was traveling northbound in a city in the Bay Area. At the same time, the defendant was driving eastbound. The defendant negligently and unlawfully failed to yield while running a red light and collided with our client.
As a result of the accident, our client suffered severe and traumatic injuries that necessitated significant medical care. They injured their neck, shoulder, lower back, and suffered a mild traumatic brain injury with PTSD. They exhausted conservative treatment and pain management before undergoing an Open Laminectomy and Foraminotomy.
Although surgery did help, our client continued to experience pain and discomfort and underwent procedures to permanently implant a spinal cord stimulator.
It is important to obey traffic signs, including traffic lights. This prevents accidents and keeps the roads safe. When drivers fail to follow traffic signals, like running a red light, the risk of collisions and injuries is greatly increased.
