Man Arrested Following Multi-Vehicle Collision in Chino, Ca

Chino, CA (February 15, 2020) Following the hospitalization of a 44 year-old man after a multi-vehicle collision that occurred on February 7th, he was placed under arrest by the Chino Police Department on suspicion of driving under the influence at the time of the accident.

According to Chino Police, the multi-vehicle accident occurred on the intersection of El Prado Rd. and Kimball Ave. The suspect, Sandeep Vashisht, was booked at the West Valley Detention Center on a $25,000 bail. Records indicate that he was released on Tuesday after posting bail.

The multi-vehicle accident took place on the evening of February 7th, where responding officers learned that the suspect fled the scene before he could be apprehended. As he attempted to flee, Vashisht drove through a construction site and crashed with a commercial cement vehicle. He was transported to a hospital where he left against medical advice. He was arrested three days after in a home in south Chino.

Other parties involved in the accident sustained only minor injuries and they did not require emergency medical treatment. The Chino Police Department continues its investigation of the case.

According to data published by the California Office of Traffic Safety, 356 people were either killed or injured in traffic accidents that occured in 2017. Many of these accidents involved alcohol-impaired driving.

While drunk driving is one of the most common causes of traffic accidents, it is not the only cause of accidents. Sadly, most auto accidents are the consequence of human error. In many cases, traffic accidents could have been easily avoided if the negligent driver operated the vehicle responsibly.

Leading causes of auto accidents across the nation include driving while distracted, fatigued, reckless speeding, and aggressive driving. It is important to note that there are also other factors that can lead to auto accidents, such as dangerous construction zones, poor weather conditions, or poorly maintained streets. Still, when an accident occurs as a result of another’s negligence, the at-fault party can be held liable for the injuries caused.

Based on the California Civil Code §1714, every person is responsible for the consequences of his or her actions. When a person is injured as a result of another’s careless actions or negligence, the injured party can seek compensation from the at-fault party by filing a personal injury claim.

Sadly, auto accidents can result in a wide variety of injuries that can range from minor cuts to fatal injuries. In spite of this, there are some injuries that occur more frequently than the rest.

Neck injuries are the most common type of injury sustained in auto accidents. Upon collision, a person can easily suffer severe whiplash or strain injuries. In catastrophic collisions, the injury can result in damaged discs in the neck or cervical dislocation.

When an auto accident results in glass shattering or a chemical spill, this can result in disfigurement. Additionally, many victims can also experience facial injuries that can cause deep scarring and disfigurement. These injuries can be detrimental to a person’s confidence and self-esteem but they can also cause extensive damage to the surrounding tissue, nerves, or muscles. When this occurs, a person’s motor control functioning will be dramatically impacted.

Although broken bones are common in auto accidents, they can be particularly dangerous when they cause internal injuries. A person who has suffered a broken rib, for example, runs the risk of also sustaining a punctured lung. Consequently, it is important to seek a complete medical evaluation after a car accident.

Common broken bone injuries include hip fractures, broken teeth, spinal injuries, skull fractures, broken ribs, broken pelvis, broken or fractured wrists, and fibula or tibia fractures.

When an auto accident is caused as a result of another’s negligence, the at-fault party can be held responsible for paying the victim’s medical expenses, loss of wages, and more. Auto accidents that involve intoxicated driving or multi-vehicle collisions can be challenging and may involve a variety of legal complexities. If you or a loved one has been injured in an auto accident, discuss your case with an experienced personal injury attorney.

I hired J King Law to represent me when I was hit by a car walking into a grocery store in Hesperia, Ca. When I explained the situation to Justin and his firm they were extremely understanding and reassuring that this will be taken care of and they will fight for me. Throughout the process the whole team was very attentive and honest about everything that came up. I have nothing but, great things to say about this law firm. I highly recommend them to anyone that has suffered any injury whether it’s major or minor. The thing I appreciated most were the updates given almost every 2 weeks. They broke everything down to help me understand it all and I’m just so grateful for them. Thank you so much J King Law!

Wow! I can't say enough good things about the Law Offices of Justin King. Attitude starts at the top, & this firm is top tier. They represented me (& yes we won!) for an injury I sustained while riding my motorcycle westbound on the 10. Someone changed lanes without looking, which resulted in a knee injury, a lot of physical therapy, & a totaled motorcycle. I wasn't sure what to do or if this were even something worth pursuing. I found Justin's webpage & sent a quick message to him on a Saturday night then thought nothing of it. My first call from Justin was Sunday morning. I was immediately impressed. After hearing a bit of my story & asking a few questions I was ready to have Justin represent me. My first question was "How much do I need to come up with to get this started? Justin replied, you don't owe anything until we win. Not unless, until. That set the tone of the next 2 years of my life. As your case progresses it'll require work from you & a whole team working to represent you. Staci will call & let you know she's emailing documents that require signatures; Garrett will call to ask for details they need to understand & yes, he will call to remind you that you forgot to sign a document 3 days earlier. These are great people who genuinely care. They will take time to understand your needs & they communicate every step of the way. If you are injured, you need to call Justin & his team right away. You will not be disappointed!Google only allows 5 stars, but these guys deserve 10!

I was involved in my first big automobile accident last year, in Yorba Linda. I was a bit overwhelmed as you can imagine. Friends suggested that I hire an attorney to handle my case and I was not quite sure how to proceed. I was very fortunate when I was referred to Justin King’s office.I met with Mr. King and found him to be very personable and he listened to my concerns. I felt very comfortable and confident that he would help me in getting a fair outcome to my case.I want to also thank Garrett Tuckerman for all he did in keeping me updated with everything going on with my case and for being there whenever I had any questions or concerns. I also want to mention Leoni Barrera who was always pleasant and supportive when I called.I highly recommend The Law Offices of Justin H. King for your personal injury needs. I feel that Mr. King and his whole staff, with their knowledge, expertise and professionalism will help make your experience a less stressful one.

Last July I was struck by a falling case of liquor at Total Wine in Rancho Cucamonga which led to a slip and fall. My friends and family urged me to contact a lawyer after discovering I needed surgery to repair my broken wrist. A friend found Justin King on Google. Justin was compassionate, accessible, and took charge from the very first meeting. He was able to obtain the surveillance video capturing the entire incident, and made an appointment for me to see a prominent neurologist after the video showed the case struck the front of my head. The entire staff at The Law Offices of Justin H. King were very easy to work with, and I always felt like my case was getting personal attention. Thank you Garrett, Staci, and Leoni! My case went to mediation and settled for more than 3x what they originally offered. If you have been injured in an accident, I highly recommend The Law Offices of Justin H. King.

They kept us updated and we were reassured that we were in good hands. I want to also express my gratitude to Garrett for being so empathic and supportive through the ups and downs that comes with a case. We are so blessed to have had them handle our case. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a professional and dependable office. Thank you again Justin King Office!!!

I went from feeling like a basket case from all the stress to feeling calm and collected after talking to Justin. He is a phenomenal personal injury lawyer and is a truly calming and reassuring presence. This firm helped me in ways I can't even adequately put into words, other than to say Thank You, Justin, to you and your awesome team.

After an auto accident, I felt really nervous calling an attorney because I had never worked with one before. But from the first conversation I had with Jessica, I felt so at ease. Justin then called me and was so easy going and we had a nice conversation too. The entire staff took great care of me and I am very happy.

I was in a car accident that was not my fault two years ago. A friend of mine had a family member who had been helped in the past by Justin King, and they suggested I call him. I'm so glad I did! Justin and his team took great care of my situation and got a great settlement for me. I highly recommend them if you have been in an accident. You will be very happy with what this firm. They are smart, hard-working, honest, and take great care of their clients.

When I needed a lawyer following a car accident on the Interstate 15 Freeway in Rancho Cucamonga, Justin King, and his team were there for me. I appreciated how his entire staff always seemed happy to answer my questions and were so good about returning all my phone calls and emails. I could tell this firm has immense experience in helping people get their life back after an unfortunate car crash. I was so happy with the outcome of my case and the results Justin obtained from the insurance company on my behalf. I have recommended their office to all my family members and neighbors. I hope you never need to call them. But if you need the best car accident lawyers, I can vouch that they are excellent.
