Fatal Collision in Temecula

On Monday May 6, 2013, at about 2:45 PM officers from the Temecula Police Department responded to a report of a traffic collision at the intersection of Rancho California Road and Town Center in the city of Temecula. Upon arrival, witnesses told officers that a male in a full-size truck was traveling west on Rancho California Road when he failed to stop at the signal light at Town Center. The truck struck a gold Pontiac then spun out and struck a gold Saturn. The truck came to rest facing east on Rancho California Road.

The Pontiac and Saturn were heavily damaged and remained in the intersection. Each vehicle contained one female occupant.

The suspect then fled the scene east on Rancho California Road and into the Temecula Town Center shopping center. He was located and detained at that location by officers.

The driver of the Pontiac, a 27-year-old female from Escondido and the driver of the Saturn, a 38-year-old female from Corona were transported to local hospitals. The 27-year-old female succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced dead at the hospital.

The driver of the truck, Travis Hughes Braswell, 63 years old from Menifee, was transported to a local hospital, treated and released. He was then arrested and booked at the Southwest Detention Center for vehicular homicide and hit and run.

This investigation is still ongoing.

Automobile Collisions and Personal Injury Liability

An experienced attorney can advise the victims of their legal rights and decide the best course of action in recovering the maximum compensation for their injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Also, in unique and complex situations such as this one, an attorney can hire a highly skilled independent investigator to reconstruct the scene of the accident.

The term “wrongful death” is defined as the death of an individual as a result of the negligence, carelessness, intentional act of another individual, corporation, company or entity.  Filing a proper wrongful death claim is extremely difficult and complex for families because they are not only dealing with their grief over the death of a beloved family member, but also complex issues of compensation as well.  Wrongful death claims are usually sought after by relatives, siblings, or members of the decedent’s estate who have lost a considerable amount of money as well as loss of support and grief due to the wrongful death of the decedent.

In most states, if the death of a relative or spouse was caused by the wrongful act of another, surviving family members can file a wrongful death lawsuit against the negligent party or parties.  In order to file a wrongful death claim, you must be able to prove that you will experience severe future emotional and financial hardship because of the loss of the death of a relative, family member or spouse.

Five women killed in San Mateo Bridge limo fire

A limousine in the San Francisco area caught fire Saturday night while carrying nine women. Four of the passengers and the male driver managed to escape, but five of the women died in the blaze.

The  limousine traveling on a major bridge in the San Francisco Bay area burst into flames, killing five female passengers who were trapped inside and injuring four others who escaped, authorities said Sunday.

The limo was carrying nine female passengers and a male driver when it caught fire late Saturday on the San Mateo bridge, California Highway Patrol officer Art Montiel told The Associated Press.

Five occupants became trapped, while four others suffered injuries but managed to get out after the vehicle came to a stop on the bridge, the patrol said. The driver escaped uninjured.

Montiel said that the victims were all in their 30s. Authorities said the names of the dead would be released once families have been notified.

The blaze occurred around 10 p.m. on westbound lanes of the bridge, which connects San Mateo and Alameda counties, about 20 miles southeast of San Francisco.

The patrol said that smoke started coming out of the rear of the limo, and the driver pulled over as the vehicle quickly became engulfed in flames. Officers were trying to determine the cause of the blaze, which wasn’t the result of an accident.

“We have no idea right now where they were going or where they were coming from,” CHP officer Amelia Jack told KGO-TV.

Two of the women who escaped were taken to Stanford Hospital and the two others were taken to Valley Medical Center in San Jose. All four are being treated for smoke inhalation and burns.

 The mother of one of the survivors of a limousine fire that killed five women when it burst into flames as it traveled over a busy San Francisco Bay bridge says the women were heading to a bachelorette party.

Rosita Guardiano tells the San Francisco Chronicle that the bride-to-be was one of the people killed in the Saturday night fire on theSan Mateo-Hayward Bridge. She says the woman was to be married next month.

Guardiano says her daughter — 42-year-old Mary Grace Guardiano of Alameda — is in intensive care, where she’s being treated for smoke inhalation. Three other woman also suffered smoke inhalation and burns.

One dead, two injured in Highway 152 crash

A Southern California man is dead and two others are in the hospital following a solo-vehicle crash on Highway 152 during commute hours Monday morning.

California Highway Patrol spokesman Matt Pinheiro said Joshua Burke, 21, of Garden Grove was driving a 2004 GMC utility truck westbound in the fast lane west of Box Car Road, about 6 1/2 miles east of Los Banos, at 6:59 a.m. when the truck veered to the right and hit a guard rail. Pinheiro said the truck went into the air and landed on the side of an irrigation canal.

Pinheiro said Burke and his two passengers, Eric Rodriguez, 21, of Long Beach and a 35-year-old man from Murietta, were trapped in the truck, which caught fire in its engine compartment after the crash. The 35-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene. His name was being withheld by law enforcement until his family is notified.

Pinheiro said Burke was airlifted to Memorial Medical Center in Modesto and Rodriguez was taken to Community Regional Medical Center in Fresno. Both men were suffering from major injuries, including burns on various parts of their bodies.

Cause of the Highway 152 Crash

As  passengers, the deceased likely could have done nothing to prevent this fatal  collision that ultimately took their lives. The California Highway Patrol  will surely look at the speed of the vehicle, witness reports, and other factors to determine what occurred and who was responsible. Collisions such as this one can have countless causes, including unsafe passing maneuvers, swerving to avoid an object in the road, falling asleep at the wheel, driving under the influence, or driver distraction.

Fatal accident on the 57 freeway

Orange County’s former chief executive officer ran into a disabled vehicle while driving on the 57 Freeway, a crash that killed two people, the California Highway Patrol reported.

According to a preliminary report, Thomas Mauk, 69, rear-ended a disabled vehicle on the 57 Freeway near Diamond Bar late Sunday.

Anubhai Patel, 67, and his wife, Shardaben Patel, 68, were inside the vehicle at the time of the crash. The Anaheim couple died from their injuries.

Police said Mauk and his wife, Denise, both from Whittier, were southbound on the freeway when their 2008 Cadillac Escalade slammed into the back of the 2006 Toyota Prius north of Pathfinder Road.

The Prius had been reported as disabled in the No. 3 lane just minutes earlier, according to a CHP report.

Mauk and his wife suffered minor injuries and neither was arrested after the crash, which remains under investigation.

Mauk resigned from his Orange County post last summer amid heavy criticism on how county executives handled an internal investigation into a fellow executive’s alleged misconduct.
