What is the applicable statute of limitations on a motor vehicle accident?

As an initial matter, there appears to be an issue regarding the statute of limitations. The applicable statute of limitations on a claim begins to run upon accrual, that is when a plaintiff knows or has reason to know of the injury which forms the basis of the claim. See Douglass v. Noelle, 567 F.3d 1103, 1109 (9th Cir. 2009) ("Under federal law, a claim accrues when the plaintiff knows or should know of the injury that is the basis of the cause of action."). This is normally the date of the injury. See Ward v. Westinghouse Canada, Inc., 32 F.3d 1405, 1407 (9th Cir. 1994). Here, plaintiff had reason to know of each of the foregoing injuries on the day each occurred.
