Box Truck Crashes in South Orange County

A small box truck crashed early Friday morning in south Orange County on the southbound interstate 5 freeway. The accident caused the truck to flip and overturn and block lanes of traffic causing delayed traffic conditions for early morning commuters. As a result of the accident, the driver was transported to a local area hospital for evaluation and treatment due to minor injuries. It took emergency crews some time before they were able to remove the truck from blocking the lanes of traffic. Authorities are unsure if another vehicle was involved and/or responsible for the accident and over-turning of the box truck.

If you are injured in a truck accident it is important to get immediate medical attention to evaluate and treat your injuries. Oftentimes, when people are involved in a minor car-accident, they do not seek medical attention right away. Oftentimes, they believe that they have sustained no injury and will not seek medical attention until their injuries have already been exacerbated. In pursuing a claim for injuries, it is important to get immediate medical attention to document the injuries, and get proper diagnostics to fully understand the true extent and nature of injury. Additionally, it will help to get immediate treatment including physical therapy and chiropractic treatment, to alleviate all symptoms.
