One of the drivers involved in the accident was airlifted to Huntsville Hospital for emergency care. The second driver was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for emergency treatment.

We hope the two people hurt in this crash recover quickly.

Auto Accidents in Alabama

Automobile accidents are the cause of thousands of injuries across Alabama every year. Although we often see drivers operate their vehicles with care and consideration, we continue to see innocent people severely harmed as a result of drivers who are in a hurry to make it to their destination, operate the vehicle while impaired, or engage in other negligent actions.

It is critically important for individuals to operate their vehicles with consideration for others. Unfortunately, there are many instances where they fail to do so, and other people sharing the road are left with severe injuries that affect their lives forever. Individuals who suffer traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, and internal organ injuries all have to go through extensive medical treatment. Dealing with the aftermath of these accidents can be incredibly challenging. Depending on the circumstances of the accident, crash victims may be able to take legal action against the responsible party.
