Chicago, IL - Injuries Reported in Vehicle Wreck on I-290 at Central Ave

Chicago, IL (June 11, 2022) – On Saturday evening, June 11, a multi-vehicle collision occurred in the greater Chicago metro area, according to local officials.

The driver of a passenger automobile collided with another vehicle on Interstate 290/Eisenhower Inbound at Central Avenue, according to Chicago Police. Both cars were in the left lanes at the time of the crash, which happened at about 9:30 p.m. in the left lanes of traffic.

Two individuals were injured, but updates on their current medical conditions have not been disclosed. Medics noted that the reported injuries ranged from mild to moderate and were not life-threatening, however.

Per officials, there are no outstanding charges related to the occurrence. Nevertheless, the probe into the circumstances in connection with the crash is still ongoing.

The wounded victims of the accident are in our thoughts, and we hope for their complete recovery.

Injuries From Chicago Motor Vehicle Crashes

The Federal Highway Administration (FHA) reports almost 2.5 million accidents annually at congested junctions, major roads, and interstates. The majority of these collisions are caused by inattentive or left-turning motorists. According to statistics, over 46% of all automotive accidents in the United States occur at these crossings.

Unfortunately, traffic accidents are frequent in Cook County, with many happening at heavily used intersections. A quarter of all car accidents in Illinois, according to state authorities, occur in and around the Chicago metropolitan area.

When people are injured due to the negligence of others, they and their families face the brunt of the repercussions. Regardless matter how the event happened, this is true. Victims must endure tremendous mental anguish, hefty medical expenses, and financial hardships.

If you were harmed in one of these situations or lost a family member as a result of one of these incidences, you may have a variety of legal remedies available to you. After being involved in an event that was not your fault, you should immediately contact a Chicago automobile accident attorney.

In the event that you were injured in an automobile accident in Illinois due to another driver’s irresponsibility or inattention, you have the legal right to seek justice, as well as fair and complete compensation. However, collecting substantial monetary compensation from drivers responsible for these wrecks or their insurance companies may be challenging, so accident victims in Illinois should ensure that they seek legal counsel as soon as they can after an accident.

  • "Excellent Law Firm!"

    I cannot recommend D&W Law Group enough. From the moment I met the team, I felt confident that I was in good hands. They kept in touch with me every step of the way. My attorneys fought the insurance company, and we settled my case without having to go to court. Excellent law firm!

  • "Great Settlement"

    When I had my accident, the insurance company dragged its feet. I tried to handle the case on my own. I am so glad I decided to hire D&W Law Group. They kept my case moving, and I was awarded a great settlement. I hope I never need an attorney again, but if I do I will call them.
