Few places put more people on the road than Los Angeles. The 101, the 5, the 110 and the 405 carry millions of trips a day, and the city's surface boulevards stay busy long after rush hour ends. That volume is reflected in the public record: in 2025 Los Angeles logged more than 12,000 injury collisions, leaving upward of 17,000 people hurt, with reported crashes tending to peak on Friday evenings. Behind those numbers are pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists and drivers whose lives changed in an instant β and many of them had no idea what their claim was worth or how little time California law gives them to act.
