Nine Months of Crashes on Sunland Boulevard

Crash reports on Sunland Boulevard are filed intersection by intersection. No single report looks unusual. But pull the full nine months of CHP data for the entire corridor and a different picture emerges: 19 crashes, 11 involving injuries. Crash frequency dipped 12% from the prior period, but a road does not get a clean slate because one window improved over another.

11 Injuries
58% Injury Rate

21% of crashes along this corridor are rear end collisions. When rear end crashes cluster like this across multiple points on the same road, the question is not driver inattention. It is whether the signal timing and sight lines were ever adequate for the volume.

UCLA-Trained Attorneys, Not a Call Center

I grew up in the San Fernando Valley, graduated from El Camino Real High School and UCLA Law School, and I've spent my career representing people who were hurt because someone else wasn't paying attention. I take these cases personally because I've watched families in this community deal with the aftermath of serious crashes. If you were injured, I want to hear what happened.

Dangerous road design

When the Road Itself Is the Problem

Not every crash is a driver's fault. Under California Government Code § 835, a public entity, whether it's a city, county, or Caltrans, can be held liable when a dangerous condition on public property causes injury. A "dangerous condition" can include poor sight lines, missing turn lanes, inadequate signage, confusing lane markings, or signal timing that doesn't account for actual traffic patterns.

What makes a road design case different from a standard auto accident claim is evidence of notice. If a city knew or should have known about a hazard and failed to fix it, they're on the hook, and the 19 crashes recorded along Sunland Boulevard over the last nine months are exactly that kind of pattern.

Frequently asked questions

Common Questions After a Crash Here

How dangerous is Sunland Boulevard in Sun Valley?
CHP data shows 19 reported crashes along Sunland Boulevard in Sun Valley in the last nine months, with an injury rate of 58%. This single road accounts for 6% of all crashes in Sun Valley.
Does the road design on Sunland Boulevard affect my case?
Potentially. If the road design contributed to your crash, the public entity responsible for maintaining Sunland Boulevard may share liability, but you must file a government tort claim within six months, not the standard two-year deadline.
If crashes are spread across multiple intersections on Sunland Boulevard, who is responsible?
It depends on the road. Streets in California can be maintained by the city, the county, or Caltrans, and some corridors change jurisdiction mid-road. An attorney can determine which agency maintains Sunland Boulevard and whether a government tort claim is viable.
Does the type of crash on Sunland Boulevard affect whether the road design is at fault?
Rear End collisions account for 21% of crashes along this corridor. When the same collision type repeats along an entire road, it shifts the question from individual driver behavior to road design and maintenance.
I was in a crash on Sunland Boulevard but I do not remember the exact cross street. Can I still file a claim?
Yes. You do not need to know the exact intersection. If you know you were on Sunland Boulevard and you were hurt, that is enough to start. CHP records include GPS coordinates and officer descriptions of the crash location. An attorney can pull the full report and match it to the documented crash pattern on this corridor.
