A three-vehicle collision involving an MTA bus on Sunday morning in South Los Angeles has left a 30-year-old woman with serious injuries and another person with minor injuries, according to local authorities. Emergency responders were dispatched to the scene at 5025 S. Broadway at approximately 11:04 a.m.
The Los Angeles Fire Department reported that eight individuals were evaluated for injuries at the crash site. Two of the victims, including the seriously injured 30-year-old woman, were transported to a nearby hospital for further treatment. Another person with minor injuries also received medical care, while one individual declined treatment altogether. The remaining five individuals involved were assessed at the scene and reported no significant medical issues.
At this time, it is unclear whether the injured victims were passengers on the MTA bus or occupants of the other vehicles involved. The authorities are still investigating the cause of the crash and gathering information about the events leading up to the collision.
The Compensation Victims May Be Entitled To
Victims of accidents involving public vehicles, such as an MTA bus crash, may be eligible for several types of compensation. Serious injuries, such as those sustained by the 30-year-old woman, can result in costly medical bills, lost wages, and long-term rehabilitation expenses. Victims may also pursue compensation for pain and suffering, emotional distress, and diminished quality of life.
For those with minor injuries, compensation may still cover medical expenses and any inconvenience or financial losses caused by the crash. Importantly, the involvement of a public entity like the MTA may add complexity to the claims process due to specific rules and deadlines for filing claims against government agencies.
