13 Dead After Tour Bus Crashes Near Palm Springs

13 people died and 31 were injured in a tour bus accident in the desert near Palm Springs early Sunday morning. In the middle of the night, the bus collided with the back of a big rig truck in California’s deadliest crash in decades.

“In almost 35 years, I’ve never been to a crash where there’s been 13 confirmed fatals,” California Highway Patrol Border Division Chief Jim Abele told the LA Times

How to Respond After a Serious Accident

After a crash, securing your safety is the most important thing. Seek immediate medical attention if you have been badly injured. Even if you feel fine, it is best to see a doctor.

If you have been involved in any type of vehicle accident, especially with a commercial vehicle, it is important to remember that the responsible parties and their insurers are not on your side. You should never give a statement to an insurance company without speaking to an attorney first.
