Each type of case has a statute of limitations, which means you only have a certain amount of time to file a claim. In California, the statute of limitations is only 2 years for auto accident claims. But don’t wait to call! Other statutes can be much shorter, and you may not realize that you have a different type of claim that applies to your accident!

The sloping streets are steep, but the views of the ocean and skyscrapers make walking worth the effort for pedestrians. As the birthplace and headquarters of the countless technologies that shape our modern world (including rideshare companies like Uber and Lyft), as well as a thriving local culture, San Francisco has earned its place as one of the most beloved and renowned cities in the United States among tourists and residents alike.

Unfortunately, San Francisco’s popularity has its drawbacks as well. The 16th most populous city in the United States as of 2019 with over 880,000 residents, San Francisco’s land mass is more heavily restricted by its geography than most busy cities, covering only 46.91 square miles. Between the commuters flowing through Silicon Valley’s booming industry, the 25 million annual visitors drawn to popular tourist spots, and the daily activity of residents themselves, San Francisco has seen an explosion in street congestion and traffic accidents.

In 2014, the city of San Francisco launched Vision Zero, a ten-year campaign that aims to eliminate all serious traffic accidents by 2024. Although the intentions of the initiative are admirable, the San Francisco car accident statistics recorded to-date paint a sobering picture. In 2021, the SF Chronicle reported that over 2,000 people had been injured and more than 200 had been killed in traffic accidents since the inception of Vision Zero. Cycling in San Francisco in particular has proven to be a dangerous activity for locals and visitors alike, despite the city’s $112 million investment in bike-related improvements (a commitment that is expected to be fulfilled some time in 2021).
