What Makes Santa Monica Accidents Different
Busy corridors such as Ocean Avenue, Lincoln Boulevard, Pacific Coast Highway, and the Santa Monica Freeway (I-10) carry heavy traffic, and beach visitors and bike riders add to the number of people sharing the road. Bicycle, pedestrian, and rideshare accidents are common here, and each raises its own questions about fault and insurance coverage.
