Car Accidents in Utah
Highways throughout Utah, including scenic stretches like East Highway 39, can be deceptively dangerous. With changing terrain, limited shoulder space, and speed variation between vehicles, these roads are frequent sites of serious crashes. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, thousands of injury-causing crashes occur each year across the state, often far from immediate medical help.
Here’s what to consider if you’re ever involved in a collision:
- Know Your Location: In rural or mountainous areas, identifying your precise location—like a mile marker or nearby landmark—helps emergency crews arrive faster and improves report accuracy.
- Assess for Delayed Injuries: On high-speed roads, even seemingly minor collisions can result in injuries that don’t show symptoms right away. Seek care promptly if anything feels off.
- Document the Scene Before Leaving: If safe, take photos of vehicle placement, roadway conditions, and damage. On rural highways, these details are especially important for reconstructing what happened.
- Don’t Rely on Verbal Agreements: Even if all parties seem cooperative, get a police report. Off-the-record agreements often fall apart once insurance companies get involved.
- Consider Legal Help Early:With possible hospital bills, missed work, and damage claims, an attorney can help ensure you don’t get stuck footing the bill for someone else’s mistake.
