A vehicle plunged over a 100-foot cliff on Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles, sparking speculation that street racing might be to blame. Emergency crews responded to the incident on the 13000 block of Mulholland Drive in Sherman Oaks around 12:15 a.m. on Monday. While a video clip showed a black sedan damaged against trees, the driver, a 17-year-old, was reportedly unharmed. A local resident, Ashlee Powers, indicated that street racing is a frequent issue in the area, often heard around 11 p.m., especially on weekends. Police are investigating the crash to determine if street racing was involved, but no confirmations have been released.

It depends on numerous factors such as how long it takes you to heal up, whether there are any complications from your injuries, etc. All we can promise you is that we will get you every penny you deserve for your injuries and then some.
2. The insurance company said that I don't need a lawyer. Is that true?
It is important to remember that your interests and the interests of the insurance company are not the same. You should always seek a free consultation from a personal injury lawyer to get an unbiased legal opinion regarding your case and your rights.

Absolutely. In fact, most clients want to avoid going to court. We do our very best to come to a reasonable settlement before filing a lawsuit.

You may be entitled to compensation for the following: Medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, emotional distress, and future medical expenses and lost earning capacity.
7. How is fault determined in a car accident case?
Fault is determined based on evidence such as police reports, witness statements, and accident reconstruction. Comparative negligence laws may apply, which means your compensation could be reduced if you are partially at fault.

Ensure safety: Move to a safe location if possible and check for injuries. Call 911: Report the accident and request medical help if needed.
