Source: CCRS via data.ca.gov + CA city population. Collision counts are reported crashes from California's Crash Reporting System (CCRS), published on data.ca.gov and aggregated to city jurisdiction; fatality totals are cross-checked against NHTSA's Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). Rates per 100,000 use annual city population. Years marked prov are provisional and update as the record is finalized.
Fontana sits where the I-10 San Bernardino Freeway meets a grid of long surface streets, and that layout shows up in the public record. In 2025, the most recent final reporting year, the city logged 799 injury collisions. Those crashes hurt 1,105 people and took 21 lives. Collision counts run highest along Sierra Avenue, the I-10, Citrus Avenue, and Foothill Boulevard, and reports tend to bunch up on Friday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m., when much of the city is heading home at once. If one of those numbers now describes you, here is what LawProactive does. We are a free service, not a law firm. We do not give legal advice and no attorney works for us. What we do is connect you with an independent personal injury attorney who handles cases in San Bernardino County, so you are not calling around while you are still sore and off work. The attorneys in our network take injury cases on contingency, which means there is no fee unless there is a recovery. You pay nothing to be matched, and the first conversation with the attorney costs nothing either. From there, the choice about how to proceed stays with you.

Most California injury claims must be filed within two years of the injury. If a city, county, or state agency is involved, the deadline to give notice can be as short as six months, so waiting is rarely in your favor.
California follows pure comparative fault. If you were 30 percent responsible, your recovery is reduced by 30 percent, not wiped out.
For a typical car, truck, or fall injury, California places no statutory ceiling on non-economic damages such as pain, loss of enjoyment of life, and emotional distress. Medical malpractice claims have separate rules.
Attorneys in the LawProactive network work on contingency. Their fee comes out of any recovery, and if there isn't one, you don't owe them a fee.
