WHAT DOES AN “OTHER” AUTO ACCIDENT LOOK LIKE?
When thinking of a car accident, most people envision a crash involving one or two other everyday cars like their own. However, we share the road with a wide range of vehicles. We are just as likely to be involved in an accident with them as with other car owners.
Here are a few real-life examples we've seen in the Altoona area:
- Getting “T-boned” by a medical transport van
- Involved in a multi-vehicle crash on East Pleasant Valley Boulevard
- Hit by a motor vehicle while walking as a pedestrian
- Involved in a pile-up accident on I-99
- Hit by an Altoona city vehicle, such as a snowplow or garbage truck
- Rear-ended by an emergency responder at an intersection
- Hit by a police cruiser, a fire truck, or an ambulance
- Accidents caused by poor road or traffic signal maintenance

HOW ARE THESE CASES COMPLICATED?
While some car accidents can be straightforward, others, especially those involving government vehicles or property, often present more complex issues and legal challenges.
Government Liability
In Altoona, the city or state government may be responsible for accidents if they fail to maintain roads or traffic signals, or if they provide inadequate signage for drivers.
Emergency Vehicle Exemptions
Emergency vehicles are granted certain traffic exemptions to ensure they can respond promptly to emergencies. Some of these include proceeding through red lights,changing stoplights, and exceeding the speed limit.
However, they still have to drive carefully. If a driver fails to use sirens or lights or drives recklessly, they can be held responsible for the damage they cause.
Unclear Fault in Chain Crashes
Determining who is at fault in a multi-car accident can be challenging. Sometimes several drivers share responsibility. Other times, it's poor weather or road conditions. We help gather evidence, talk to witnesses, and review any available footage to understand what happened.
WHAT OUR ALTOONA LAWYERS DO FOR YOU
These types of crashes are complicated, but our Altoona legal team knows how to handle them and guide you every step of the way.
Here’s how we help:
- Determine fault in emergency/government vehicle collisions
- Deal with city agencies or public entities

WHAT TO DO AFTER A COMPLEX VEHICLE COLLISION IN ALTOONA
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed after an accident like this. Complete the following steps to ensure you protect yourself and your recovery:
- Make sure you’re safe and immediately call 911 for emergency assistance.
- Never admit fault or place blame.
- Exchange insurance information with other drivers involved in the accident.
- Gather contact information from everyone else at the scene. Witnesses can be crucial to confirm what happened.
- Write down what happened while it's still fresh in your memory. You can jot notes on paper or use a voice recorder on your phone.
- Take pictures of the evidence, including injuries, the vehicles, the scene, and any obstructions that could have been involved.
- If you are injured, seek medical attention immediately. Then, if you decide to file a personal injury claim, you'll have a documented record of your injuries.
