The police are asking all drivers in the Coachella Valley to stay at home or find alternate routes until severe, hurricane-strength winds subside.  The winds are causing significant damage across the valley.

Residents are without power - the local airport saw 66 mph wind gusts.  Reports indicate that large dust clouds and blowing sand are causing low visibility on the roads.  Uprooted trees and downed power lines forced many road closures.

The windstorm is believed to have been responsible for a two-vehicle accident involving an automobile and a bus on Interstate 10 near Palm Springs.  One individual had to be cut out of a severely damaged vehicle, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.

Two adults and two children were taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of moderate to major injuries.

If you are involved in an accident that occurred due to severe road conditions or the negligence of another person, contact an experienced Riverside Personal Injury attorney who will investigate your case and make sure you receive the compensation you deserve.

For those of you stuck in late afternoon traffic between Laurel Avenue and 11^th Street the other day and not knowing why, let me tell you.  Two people riding a motorcycle on Interstate 10 in Beaumont were injured because of debris in the road.  The debris fell from a trailer.

The two individuals were taken to a local hospital where their condition is unknown.  I hope they consult an experienced Personal Injury attorney who will investigate, find the trailer that lost the debris and make sure these individuals get compensated for their medical expenses.
