While vehicle collisions can happen anywhere at any time, a significant number of crashes occur at intersections where vehicles traveling in multiple directions cross paths. Intersections in Greeneville are no exception.
Earlier this summer, News 5 WCYB reported that a driver was cited with failure to exercise due care and criminal charges were pending after they turned right on to U.S. Route 11E and struck a motorcycle causing it to collide with another motorcycle. Both motorcyclists were injured in the crash. The at-fault driver claimed to not see either vehicle.

What to Do After a Greeneville Car Accident
After any kind of car accident in Greeneville, do not delay in getting medical care. You should be certain that you go to a hospital even if you do not think you were hurt at first. Certain injuries have delayed symptoms but could be life-threatening if left untreated.
While you are at the scene of the crash, try to get pictures of everything involved and also look for people who could be potential witnesses. If you cannot take these steps because of your need for medical care, ask a friend, family member, or anybody else you know to do this for you.
Do not delay in finding the right Greeneville car accident lawyer to fight for your rights. The insurance company for the at-fault driver is going to act very quickly to try and limit what it pays you. Some adjusters will act concerned while attempting to get you to unknowingly admit to negligence during recorded phone conversations. Instead of talking to them, talk to an attorney who really has your best interests at heart.
