Where York County Crashes Happen
Route 17 carries heavy traffic through the county and across the Coleman Bridge, with frequent turns into shopping centers and neighborhoods. Commuters travel Route 134 toward Hampton and Joint Base Langley-Eustis, while Route 199 and I-64 connect the upper county to Williamsburg. Military traffic and visitors to historic sites add to the mix.
When a Government Vehicle Is Involved
With several military and federal facilities nearby, some crashes involve government vehicles. Those claims can have special notice requirements and much shorter deadlines than a typical injury claim. If you think a government vehicle was involved, contact a lawyer quickly.

Compensation
You may be able to recover medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and property damage. Families of people killed in accidents may pursue wrongful death claims.
Filing Deadlines
Most Virginia injury lawsuits must be filed within two years under Virginia Code § 8.01-243.
Why Choose Williams DeLoatche, P.C.
You will have direct access to your attorney and clear explanations throughout your case. We handle personal injury cases on contingency, so you pay no attorney’s fee unless we recover compensation for you.
Visitors and Historic Sites
Tourists visiting Yorktown may be focused on the sights rather than the road. Pedestrians and cyclists on scenic routes can be especially vulnerable. If you were hurt by a distracted visitor or while visiting yourself, we can help you pursue compensation.
Commercial Vehicles on Route 17
Route 17 carries delivery trucks and commercial vehicles serving shopping areas, military facilities, and businesses. A crash with one of these vehicles may involve the driver’s employer and commercial insurance. We investigate the driver’s actions and the company’s practices.
Frequently Asked Questions
I am in the military. Will a deployment affect my case?
It can affect timing, but it does not necessarily prevent you from pursuing a claim. We plan around your schedule.
Should I post about my accident online?
It is best not to. Insurers may review social media and use posts to challenge your claim.
