A rear-end collision is a traffic accident wherein a vehicle crashes into the vehicle in front of it. The rear impact collision is the most common type of automobile collision. In a rear-end accident, there is usually clearer evidence of fault than in any other type of auto accident. If you’ve been involved in a car crash in Alabama, contact a auto body shop for help getting your vehicle repaired. In most cases, the motor vehicle that was hit was stopped at a stop light, at a stop sign or in traffic. Our Huntsville rear-end collision attorneys know how common these types of accidents are and how serious injuries can arise from these collisions. Call 256-534-3435 now. We are here to help.
