Commerce is a small but heavily traveled city, with the I-5 (Santa Ana Freeway) and Telegraph Road carrying much of the daily traffic through town. In the most recent final reporting year, Commerce recorded 254 injury collisions, 333 injured people, and 2 traffic deaths — numbers that reflect how much movement passes through a city of just over 13,000 residents. Many of these crashes cluster on Fridays between 4 and 6 p.m., when commuter and weekend traffic overlap near the freeway corridor. If you were hurt in a collision, fall, or other accident in Commerce, it helps to understand your options quickly, since California generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a claim — and often only six months if a government entity is involved.
