Why Multi-Vehicle Crashes Are So Complicated

When three or more vehicles are involved in a crash, determining fault is rarely straightforward. Each driver, passenger, and insurer may have a different story about what happened. Insurance companies often point fingers to avoid paying claims, leaving victims caught in the middle while facing medical bills, lost wages, and uncertainty.
