Daly City sits right where San Francisco gives way to the Peninsula, and a great deal of traffic passes through on its way somewhere else. I-280 carries the bulk of it, while Mission Street, John Daly Boulevard and Junipero Serra Boulevard handle the local flow between neighborhoods, the BART station and the shops around Westlake. Public records for 2025 list 257 injury collisions inside the city, with 336 people hurt and one life lost. Reports tend to rise on Friday evenings between 6 and 8 p.m., when commuters heading home and weekend traffic overlap on the same streets. If you were one of those 336 people, you probably have more questions than answers right now. That is where LawProactive comes in. We are a free service, not a law firm. We do not give legal advice and we do not handle cases ourselves. What we do is connect you with an independent personal injury attorney who takes claims in San Mateo County and can walk through what happened to you. Attorneys in our network work on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery. Reaching out costs nothing and commits you to nothing, and it can bring some clarity to a confusing stretch of time.
