Many accidents on the road involve more than one car, especially accidents that occur in hazardous winter conditions or on the highway. Multi-car accidents often involve more serious injuries and bigger liability than two car crashes. In addition,
once the accident has happened, the danger has not necessarily passed. Moreover, liability—or who is responsible—can be especially difficult to determine. So, how can you figure out who is at fault, and what should you do if you have been involved in a multi-car accident?
Consider Your Safety First
