At a lower volume than major metro areas but still significant for its size, Thousand Oaks reported 27 motorcycle-related injuries and fatalities in 2022. Known for its winding canyon roads and proximity to popular scenic routes like Mulholland Highway, the area remains a hotspot for motorcycle traffic—especially on weekends and during tourist seasons.

Alcohol-involved driving is another ongoing safety concern. In 2022 alone, there were 51 injuries and fatalities in Thousand Oaks directly linked to alcohol-related crashes. These incidents often occur during nighttime hours and weekends, reflecting broader state trends tied to impaired driving.

My car has major accident damage. What should I do?
If the accident is not your fault, the at-fault person’s insurance company will want to inspect your vehicle. Your own auto insurance can also cover you, depending on the coverage you have. At this point, you will want to get the advice of your accident lawyer to see what the next best steps are.

I was a passenger in a car accident. Can you help me get money for my medical bills?
Yes, if you were a passenger in an automobile accident, you have rights. The medical expenses you incur from your injuries will fall under a third party insurance claim. A lawyer can ensure you are getting the money needed to pay your expenses. If the at-fault driver worked as a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft, the claim could be more complicated, and your injury attorney can help.

Will I have to pay out-of-pocket to get medical treatment?
No, The Accident Guys know that not everyone has health insurance or they may not have the best health insurance but still want to see a doctor for their injuries. If you were injured in an accident, we can set you up with a local doctor who will treat you on a personal injury lien. This means that the doctor does not expect payment until your case is resolved. You will not have to pay anything up front.
