Car Accidents in St. Paul, MN

Semis on Interstate 94 and 35E do not stop on packed snow the way the following distance behind them assumes. A trailer that starts to jackknife near the Lafayette Bridge takes a lane and a half with it. A crash that size usually clears Minnesota's no-fault threshold without argument, so the real dispute moves to the carrier: whether the driver should have been rolling in that weather at all.

A spinal cord injury in Minnesota carries a problem warmer states never price in. Going home means a ramp cleared before every trip out, a driveway that glazes over, and a winter of appointments to get to.
