As a Seattle vehicle accident attorney, I realize that the streets of Seattle and all neighboring streets can be a dangerous place to drive on. A vehicle on the run from the police has the potential to do countless damages to others on the road. According to the Seattle Police Department Blotter, a man was arrested in a car hijacking that lead to an erratic escape attempt that caused multiple collisions with other vehicles before ultimately resulting in the capture of the suspect. The alleged suspect began his crime spree by forcing a woman to hand over her car keys to a white Acura Sedan. The suspect took off in this vehicle and in his panic he collided with another moving vehicle at Boylston Avenue and East Pine Street. The suspect continued despite the collision and ended up striking several other parked cars that were unoccupied at the time. The multiple collisions were enough for the Acura to sustain considerable damage and the suspect fled the wreckage on foot. Police eventually caught the man and are investigating damages he caused. The couple in the first moving vehicle accident suffered only minor injures in the collision and should be lucky it was not worse.

Drivers that engage in negligent behaviors such as speeding, inattention, distractions, and aggressive driving are a dangerous force on our streets. Being a cautious and defensive driver can help protect yourself against negligent driving patterns that seem to be increasing throughout society.
