Multi-Car Accident
A multi-car accident, also known as a pile-up is a type of collision that involves many vehicles. They are more likely to occur in conditions where there is limited road visibility by fog, rain, or snow. Under these circumstances, drivers should be more alert but still may not have enough time to make a decision to avoid hitting vehicles ahead of them. Drivers may hit their brakes too slow or swerve into oncoming traffic resulting in a chain reaction of car accidents.

Who is At Fault During a Multi-Car Accident?
-
eyewitness accounts
(including your own, those of the passengers in each car, passers-by, and the drivers of the cars behind you)
-
police reports prepared in connection with the accident
(including the reporting officer’s findings as to whether any driver committed a traffic violation)
-
evidence gathered at the scene of the accident
(including skid marks and vehicle debris.)
-
vehicle damage
Chances of injuries and fatalities are twice as likely during a pile-up and continues to increase the more cars involved because it turns a single impact collision into a two or three impact collision. Fires are also very common among these types of collisions since every car is hit from a different angle and the risk of gas leaks among the vehicles is high.
