Fortuna Traffic Accident Sends Pregnant Woman to Hospital

Fortuna, CA (June 17, 2023) – On Thursday, two people were transported following a Main Street motorcycle collision.

The traffic accident took place at about 8 p.m. in the 500 block area near the intersection with 6th Street.

Officers said a silver Harley Davidson rear-ended the vehicle which was driven by a pregnant woman. 

The paramedics transported the pregnant woman to the hospital to have the fetus checked. Similarly, the motorcycle rider was also transported with serious injuries.

In the meantime, traffic crews diverted traffic at 6th Street as the authorities investigated the Fortuna traffic accident.

Injuries in Accidents

Despite the additional safety features on newer vehicle models, crash rates in California continue to increase, rather than decrease.

As a matter of fact, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), two out of three motorists will be injured in a traffic accident during their life.

Sad but true, auto accidents just like the Main Street motorcycle collision are a major public health threat. They are a leading cause of death for individuals ages 5-64.

That is why it is valuable to know what to do if you get involved in a motorcycle accident.

Meanwhile, here are some of the things that we can do to practice defensive driving and avoid accidents:

  • First, always drive at a controllable speed.
  • Then, it is also important not to assume you know the other driver’s intention.
  • Also, be prepared to positively react to other drivers.
  • This one, we should never neglect. Yield at intersections, even if you have the right of way.
  • Most importantly, stay focused on the road. Removing all distractions such as mobile phone use, and unstrapped toddlers, can help us focus on the road.

When a traffic collision like the Fortuna traffic accident happens, bear in mind that you don’t need to experience more hardship because of other people’s negligence. Our personal injury attorneys are dedicated to finding the best possible outcome for our clients.
