Whatever happened here, it's at least encouraging to see there were only minor injuries mentioned in the reports. However, it's important to emphasize that this doesn't mean the crash should be taken any less seriously. Early reports don't always have a full grasp on the consequences of the crash, and there can be incredibly complex issues to address that victims and families need to be prepared for.

For example, I handled a situation not long ago where a man was hit by a commercial vehicle, and it left him with some back pain. Doctors sent him home with little more than a prescription for a heating pad and some ibuprofen. Days later, however, the pain became crippling, and he could barely get out of bed, let alone go back to work. Further tests revealed the crash ruptured a disk in his spine, a serious injury that would ultimately require surgery, months of recovery, and a lengthy back-and-forth with the insurance company that did everything in their power to avoid responsibility.

We got that man the help he needed, but it was an arduous ordeal I wouldn't wish upon anyone. It's important that folks understand these potential challenges and make sure they have the tools needed to overcome them. Were those steps taken here?
