Virginia Beach, VA (January 21, 2021) – An automobile accident reported in the Virginia Beach area resulted in confirmed injuries. At around 11:30 p.m., on January 20, emergency crews were called to the scene of a crash on Holland Road.

Reports from authorities show that a motor vehicle collision occurred at the intersection of Holland Road and Governors Way. The impact of the crash caused one vehicle to go off the road and crash into a sign at the intersection.

Emergency crews arrived at the scene of the crash and located one person lying on the ground. Two people in total were injured. One male victim sustained head injuries while the female victim sustained back injuries. Both victims were transported to nearby hospitals for the treatment of injuries.

At this time, the crash remains under investigation.

Our thoughts are with the two victims who were injured in this accident. We hope for their full recovery.

Car Accidents in Virginia

Each year, more than 800 people lose their lives in motor vehicle accidents across the state of Virginia. Another 65,000 are injured. When people are injured in auto accidents, they often face drastic limitations on their ability to perform various tasks. Although motor vehicle accidents can happen for a variety of reasons, the majority of fatal crashes in our state fall under one of three causes, including:

  • Speeding: Speed is a factor in over 37.7% of fatal accidents across our state
  • Alcohol use: Over 29.4% of fatal crashes in Virginia involve at least one drunk driver
  • Not using a seatbelt: People who do not wear seatbelts account for 52% of fatal crashes throughout our state

There are several things you can do to protect yourself while entering the roads. However, there is no way to guarantee that others will act responsibly. As a result, tens of thousands of people are left with debilitating injuries that cause overwhelming pain and suffer. To add to the struggles and frustration, many victims require medical treatment, hospitalization, and therapy for their injuries that costs tens of thousands of dollars. If you were injured in an accident, due to another motorist’s actions, you should reach out to a car accident attorney in Virginia as soon as possible. You may be entitled to compensation to help cover the financial burdens you face from medical treatment and other expenses.
