Five people have been injured, three seriously, in a rollover crash on I-95 near the Lantana Road exit, said a spokesman for Palm Beach County Fire Rescue. Rescue crews responding to the 10:17 a.m. crash found that several people had been ejected from their vehicles. An initial report indicated that one person may had been ejected onto the Tri-Rail tracks, causing the rail service to be temporarily suspended. No one was found lying on the tracks, and a short time later Tri-Rail service was resumed. Several people were trapped inside one of the vehicles and rescue crews used the "Jaws of Life" to free them. Five people required medical treatment; three of them met trauma-alert criteria and were rushed to Delray Medical Center, Borroto said. The accident closed the southbound lanes of I-95 temporarily.

After a serious crash, several steps need to be taken, including dealing with the insurance companies, tracking and documenting lost income from missed work, coordinating medical bill payments, and handling an insurance claim.
