Wrongful Death

Fiery Wreck On Interstate 10 kills Two

A hit-and-run driver fleeing from an accident — and traveling the wrong direction on Interstate 10 — slammed head-on into a pickup, causing a fiery wreck that killed him and the motorist he hit, according to California Highway Patrol officials. The crash happened at 1:22 a.m. Sunday, March 31, about a half-mile east of Brookside Avenue in Beaumont, coroner’s investigators said in a written statement. Francisco Hernandez, 23, of Highland, left the scene of a traffic collision in a 2012 Toyota TC, according to CHP and coroner’s officials. Hernandez was driving west in the interstate’s eastbound lanes and crashed into a 2004 GMC Sierra pickup, CHP officers determined. The GMC was driven by a 45-year-old Beaumont man whose name the coroner’s office has not yet released. The collision caused the pickup to catch fire. It was fully ablaze by the time Cal Fire/Riverside County fire crews arrived. The Beaumont man’s body was badly burned, the CHP said. Fire officials said a third person suffered major injuries. It was not clear which vehicle that person was in.

Automobile Collisions and Wrongful Death Liability

While the accident on March 31 remains under investigation, the  family members of the victims in the minivan would be well-advised to seek immediate consultation from an experienced wrongful death lawyer. 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 to determine who is at fault.

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.

 

 

2 dead in fiery I-80 head-on crash involving a big rig

A big-rig driver choking on his lunch on Interstate 80 passed out, veered across the freeway near Davis and slammed head-on into a sedan Thursday, killing the car’s driver and a passenger, authorities said.

Both directions of the freeway were shut down for hours after the crash near Old Davis Road at 10:36 a.m.

The trucker lost consciousness as he choked on his food while driving east on I-80, said Officer Chris Parker, a California Highway Patrol spokesman. His truck swerved to the right, glanced off the guardrail and struck two cars as it veered back to the left, Parker said.

The truck then crashed through the center divide guardrail and struck a westbound BMW head-on, killing the car’s driver and a passenger, Parker said.

The big rig then pushed the car to the westbound shoulder and caught fire.

At some point the trucker’s air passage cleared and he regained consciousness. He escaped with minor to moderate injuries and was being held for questioning by CHP officers.

Investigators have not released his name or the names of the victims in the BMW near the Yolo-Solano County line. The drivers of the other two cars hit by the truck suffered minor injuries.

Fault and Wrongful Death Liability

Accidents involving big-rigs  have unique and complex legal issues. If it is determined that the driver of the big-rig was  at fault for this collision, the family of the victim would be well-advised to speak to a  truck accident attorney. An experienced and knowledgeable attorney will be able to review the cause of the accident, and if warranted, arrange for an independent investigator to reconstruct the collision to determine exactly what happened and who was responsible. A skilled lawyer can also provide an explanation to the victim’s family on their legal rights in a wrongful death claim against the driver or any other parties at fault. Damages awarded in a wrongful death claim may include funeral and burial expenses, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and other damages.
