<p>Sean Patrick Flynn, 49, was killed in a <a href=" http://www.bestattorney.com/california-motorcycle-accident-lawyers.html" target="_blank">motorcycle accident</a> in Malibu after his cycle hit a large truck, the morning of December 5, 2011. According to a City News Service report, the fatal motorcycle accident occurred on Pacific Coast Highway at Rambla Vista. Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department officials say that Flynn attempted to pass a fully loaded dump truck. As he did so, Flynn hit the truck's side and was then run over by its rear wheels. He died at the scene. Officials are still investigating the cause of this fatal crash.</p>
<p>I offer my deepest condolences to the family members and friends of Sean Patrick Flynn for their devastating loss. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.</p>
<p><span id="more-3707"></span><strong>Motorcycle Accident Statistics</strong></p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol's 2009 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were no fatalities, but 19 injuries happened involving motorcycle accidents in Malibu. Also, in Los Angeles County as a whole, 83 people died and 2,719 were injured due to motorcycle accidents in 2009. During the same year, 554 people were killed and 50,817 were injured as a result of Los Angeles County car accidents.</p>
<p><strong>Possible Accident Causes</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, it is unclear as to how or why this fatal motorcycle versus <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a> occurred. There are several questions here. Who was at fault? Was the motorcyclist speeding or splitting lanes? Did he try to make an unsafe pass? Was the truck driver at fault? Did the truck driver make an unsafe lane change at the time? I trust officials are also looking into whether intoxication, distracted driving, inattention or some other form of negligence played a part in this fatal motorcycle accident.</p>
<p><strong>Fault and Liability</strong></p>
<p>If the truck driver is determined to have been at fault, the driver as well as his or her employer can be held liable for the incident. In cases where negligence is involved, families of deceased accident victims can seek compensation for damages including medical expenses, funeral costs, lost future income and benefits, and loss of companionship. Victims' families would be well advised to contact an experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">Los Angeles personal injury lawyer</a>, who will stay abreast of the official investigation and ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected. The best personal injury law firms will always offer a free consultation and comprehensive case evaluation to car accident victims and their families.</p>

		</div>
<p>Two people were injured, one of them seriously, in a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-car-accident-lawyer.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles car accident</a> after a semi-truck barreled out of control and crashed into the backyard of a home. According to a news report in The Long Beach Press-Telegram, the injury crash occurred the evening of October 1, 2011 in the 11700 block of Centralia Street near Pioneer Boulevard. Officials say the truck that was pulling an empty trailer was traveling at a high rate of speed on Centralia when it lost control and crashed through cement wall lining the home's backyard. Two people who were in the yard at the time were injured. One of the victims is said to have suffered serious injuries, but is expected to survive. Officials are investigating the cause of this accident.</p>
<p><span id="more-3457"></span>My heart goes out to the injured victims of this <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a>. I wish them both the very best for a quick and complete recovery. They will certainly be in my prayers.</p>
<p><strong>Accident Statistics</strong></p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol's 2009 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were nine fatalities and 693 injuries involving car accidents in Lakewood. During the same year, Los Angeles County car accidents claimed 554 lives and injured 50,817 people.</p>
<p><strong>What Caused This Crash?</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, the driver of the semi-trailer may have lost control because he or she was traveling at a high and unsafe rate of speed. <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/california-motor-vehicle-code/basic-speed-law-22350.html" target="_blank">California Vehicle Code Section 22350 (Basic Speed Law)</a> states: "No person shall drive a vehicle upon a highway at a speed greater than is reasonable or prudent having due regard for weather, visibility, the traffic and on surface and width of, the highway, and in no event at a speed which endangers the safety of persons or property."</p>
<p>In addition, there is the issue of whether the truck had mechanical problems such as a brake failure. If that was the case the question arises as to whether the truck's brakes failed because of poor vehicle maintenance. I trust officials are also determining whether intoxication, distracted driving or recklessness may have caused or contributed to this crash.</p>
<p><strong>Fault and Liability</strong></p>
<p>If the truck driver is determined to have been at fault, both the driver and his or her employer could be held liable for the resulting injuries and damages. In such cases, injured victims can seek compensation for medical expenses, loss of wages, cost of hospitalization, rehabilitation and other related damages. An experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">Los Angeles personal injury lawyer</a> will be able to better advise car accident victims about their legal rights and options.</p>

According to a news report in The Press-Telegram, the major injury collision occurred the night of August 24, 2011 near the 405 Freeway transition to the southbound 710 Freeway. California Highway Patrol officials say that the truck that was transitioning from the 405 to the 710 overturned on to the top of a Honda car. The woman, who was the driver of the Honda, suffered major injuries while the truck driver escaped with minor injuries. Officials are still trying to determine the cause of this accident. The driver of the Honda was extricated from her vehicle and transported to an area hospital. An investigation is ongoing.</p>
<p><span id="more-3275"></span>I sympathize with the woman who has suffered severe injuries in this <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a>. I wish her the very best for a speedy and complete recovery. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.</p>
<p><strong>Car Accident Statistics</strong></p>
<p>According to CHP's 2009 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were 28 fatalities and 1,629 injuries reported as a result of Long Beach car accidents. During that same year, 554 people died and 50,817 were injured as a result of Los Angeles County car accidents.</p>
<p><strong>What Caused This Crash?</strong></p>
<p>It is unclear from this report as to how or why this major injury car versus truck collision occurred. There are many unanswered questions here. Did the truck driver make an unsafe lane change at the freeway transition? Did alcohol, drugs, speed or distracted driving play a part in this crash? Was the truck driver fatigued at the time of the crash? Was there a dangerous condition on the roadway, which may have caused or contributed this crash? Was the truck improperly loaded or overloaded? I trust officials are looking into these and other issues in order to determine what occurred and why.</p>
<p><strong>Liability Issues</strong></p>
<p>If the truck driver is determined to have been at fault, then, the driver as well as his or her employer can be held liable for the victim's injuries and damages. Injured victims in such cases can seek compensation for medical expenses, loss of earnings, cost of hospitalization, rehabilitation and other related damages. Victims would also be well-advised to contact an experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/long-beach-personal-injury-lawyer.html" target="_blank">Long Beach personal injury lawyer</a> who will analyze all aspects of the incident and ensure that the negligent parties are held liable.</p>

According to CBS Los Angeles, the fatal truck accident occurred near Arrow Highway and Aveneda Barbosa Street in Irwindale, the morning of August 21, 2011. Officials are trying to determine how the crash occurred and who was responsible for it. An investigation is ongoing.</p>
<p>My deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of Brian Bradley following this tragic accident. My thoughts and prayers are with them during this difficult time.</p>
<p><span id="more-3250"></span><strong>Motorcycle Accident Statistics</strong></p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol’s 2009 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), one person was killed and 13 were injured in Irwindale motorcycle accidents. During that same year, there were 83 fatalities and 2,719 injuries reported as a result of Los Angeles County motorcycle crashes.</p>
<p><strong>What Caused This Fatal Collision?</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, it is not quite clear how or why this fatal <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a> occurred. There are several questions that still remain. Did the truck driver fail to yield the right-of-way at the intersection to the motorcyclist? Was either motorist speeding, driving distracted, or under the influence? Did one of the vehicles make an unsafe turn at the intersection?</p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/california-motor-vehicle-code/intersections-21800.html" target="_blank">California Vehicle Code Section 21800 (a)</a>: "The driver of a vehicle approaching an intersection shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle which has entered the intersection from a different highway."</p>
<p><strong>Liability Issues</strong></p>
<p>In this particular case, if the truck driver is determined to have caused the accident, then, the driver and his or her employer could be held liable for the motorcyclist's wrongful death. In cases where negligence or wrongdoing is involved, the family of the deceased victim can file a wrongful death claim seeking compensation for medical and funeral expenses, lost future income, loss of love and companionship, and other related damages. An experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">Los Angeles personal injury lawyer</a> will be able to better advise families in such cases about their legal rights and options. The best personal injury law firms will always offer a free consultation and comprehensive case evaluation to injured victims and their families.<br />

According to a news report in The-Press Enterprise, the fatal truck accident occurred near the intersection of Grove Avenue and Nocta Street in Ontario, the evening of July 8, 2011. Muniz was traveling north, in the left lane, on his motorcycle, when a truck in the right lane attempted to make a U-turn. Muniz was fatally injured as he collided with the truck and was pulled underneath it. An investigation is ongoing.</p>
<p>My heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of Rudy Ray Muniz following this tragic motorcycle accident. My thoughts and prayers are with them during this difficult time.</p>
<p><span id="more-3049"></span><strong>Motorcycle Accident Statistics</strong></p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol’s 2008 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), one person was killed and 27 were injured in Ontario motorcycle accidents. During that same year, there were 34 fatalities and 532 injuries reported involving San Bernardino County <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/motorcycle-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">motorcycle accidents</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Unsafe U-Turn?</strong></p>
<p>It appears that the truck driver may have made an illegal U-turn here. California Vehicle Code Section 21801 (a) states: "The driver of a vehicle intending to turn to the left or to complete a U-turn upon a highway, or to turn left into public or private property, or an alley, shall yield the right-of-way to all vehicles approaching from the opposite direction which are close enough to constitute a hazard at any time during the turning movement, and shall continue to yield the right-of-way to the approaching vehicles until the left turn or U-turn can be made with reasonable safety."</p>
<p><strong>Liability Issues</strong></p>
<p>If it is determined that the truck driver made an unsafe or illegal U-turn, the driver and his or her employer could be held liable for the motorcyclist's wrongful death. The family of a deceased victim in such cases can file a wrongful death claim against at-fault parties seeking compensation for medical and funeral expenses, lost future income and benefits, loss of companionship, and other related damages. An experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/san-bernardino-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">San Bernardino personal injury lawyer</a> will better advise injured victims and their families about their legal rights and options.</p>

<p><img src="http://www.bestattorney.com/blog-images/Pedestrian%20Accidents/ambulance%20employees%20pulling%20victim.jpg" width="200" height="300" alt="Personal injury lawyer in California" border="0" align="left" hspace="5" vspace="5">Six people are dead and 28 others are still missing after a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/train-accidents/" target="_blank">train accident</a> involving the California Zephyr, an Amtrak passenger train connecting Chicago and Emeryville, California. According to news reports, the catastrophic train accident occurred the morning of June 24, 2011, when the train was struck by a semi tractor-trailer truck, at a road crossing. The 10-car train was almost near the end of its 2,438-mile route, about 260 miles from Emeryville, when the collision occurred. The gravel truck driver and the Amtrak conductor, Laurette Lee, 68, died at the scene. Another 76 people were treated at a local hospital for a variety of injuries from blunt trauma, including fractures, abrasions, lacerations and internal organ damage. Officials expect the casualty count to go up due to the large number of missing persons.</p>
<p><span id="more-3010"></span>I offer my deepest condolences to the families of the deceased victims. My heart also goes out to the many injured victims of this horrific crash. Please keep these victims and their families in your thoughts and prayers.</p>
<p><strong>Ongoing Investigation</strong></p>
<p>Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) are still looking into what caused this terrible train versus <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a>. Based on preliminary reports, investigators say the gravel truck, owned by John Davis Trucking of Nevada, was leading a three-truck convoy. The truck driver apparently applied the brakes about 320 feet before the railroad crossing, based on skid marks at the scene, but was unable to avoid the collision. Officials are still trying to determine how fast the big rig was traveling at the time. The other two drivers who were behind the lead truck that crashed told officials that the crossing gates and warning lights at the crossing were functional at the time. They were able to stop in time.</p>
<p><strong>Truck Company Had History of Violations</strong></p>
<p>Officials say John Davis Trucking, which has been based in Battle Mountain, Nevada, since 1970, has had 17 violations involving faulty equipment and two crashes since 2009. According to the Federal Motor Vehicle Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), the federal agency that monitors commercial trucks, in one case, a truck was operating with bald tires and in another its springs were defective or missing.</p>
<p><strong>Protecting Victims' Rights</strong></p>
<p>There are several unanswered questions here. Was the driver of the first truck traveling at an unsafe rate of speed? Did his brakes fail? Was the brake failure due to poor vehicle maintenance? If the accident was caused by the truck driver's negligence or due to poor vehicle maintenance, the trucking firm can be held liable for the resulting injuries and fatalities.</p>
<p>Victims of this crash and families of deceased victims would be well-advised to contact an experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/california-personal-injury-lawyer.html" target="_blank">California personal injury lawyer</a>, who will stay on top of the official investigation and make sure that their legal rights and best interests are protected. It is important that victims or their families refrain from speaking to insurance companies or defense lawyers representing the other involved parties.

<p>Lost a family member in a California truck accident? Want to know your rights?  Want to know what your case is worth?  Want compensation?  Want justice?  Want to ensure the same thing doesn’t happen to another family?</p>

<p>The driver of a minivan was seriously injured in a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-car-accident-lawyer.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles car accident</a>, which police report, involved an impaired big rig driver. According to an article in the Los Angeles Daily News, the truck accident occurred on the 101 Freeway near Laurel Canyon Boulevard in Studio City, the morning of February 1, 2011. The truck driver lost control when his vehicle slammed into the center divider and then collided with the minivan. The driver of the minivan was seriously injured, while the driver of the truck suffered relatively minor injuries. Police have arrested the truck driver on suspicion of drunk driving.  </p>
<p>My thoughts and prayers are with the injured minivan driver following this Los Angeles <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck-accident-lawyers/" target="_blank">truck accident</a>. I wish the injured victim a complete and speedy recovery.</p>
<p><strong>DUI Statistics</strong>  </p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol’s 2008 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), 105 people were killed and 2,252 were injured in Los Angeles <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/drunk-driving-murder.html" target="_blank">DUI collisions</a>. During that same year, 258 fatalities and 4,832 injuries happened due to alcohol-related car accidents in Los Angeles County.<span id="more-2349"></span></p>
<p><strong>Drunk Driving Laws</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, police believe this truck accident occurred because the truck driver was driving under the influence of alcohol. According to California Vehicle Code Section 23152 (a): "It is unlawful for any person who is under the influence of any alcoholic beverage or drug, or under the combined influence of any alcoholic beverage and drug, to drive a vehicle." It is illegal for a driver in the state of California to operate a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 percent or higher. Further, California Vehicle Code Section 23152 (d) forbids commercial license holders from having a BAC of 0.04 percent or higher while driving a commercial vehicle.</p>
<p><strong>Liability Issues</strong></p>
<p>If the truck driver in this case is determined to have been under the influence at the time, the driver and his employer could be held liable for the injuries caused to the victim. Injured victims in such cases can seek compensation for medical expenses, loss of earnings, cost of hospitalization, rehabilitation and other related damages. Car accident victims would also be well-advised to seek the counsel of an experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">Los Angeles personal injury lawyer</a>, who has a successful track record of holding negligent truck drivers and trucking firms financially responsible for injuries and damages caused.

<p>Janice Moruzzi, 55, was killed in a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/pedestrian_accidents.html" target="_blank">pedestrian accident in Rialto</a> after she was struck by a big-rig. According to a news report in The San Bernardino County Sun, Moruzzi was crossing Foothill Boulevard near Sycamore Avenue the morning of October 26, 2010 when she was hit by the large truck. Moruzzi was dragged about 77 feet before the driver stopped. She suffered major head trauma and was pronounced dead at the scene. An investigation is ongoing.<span id="more-1939"></span></p>
<p>I offer my deepest condolences to everyone who knew and loved Moruzzi for their tragic and heartbreaking loss. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers.</p>
<p><strong>Pedestrian Accidents</strong></p>
<p>There were no fatalities, but 27 injuries reported involving pedestrian accidents in Rialto, according to California Highway Patrol's 2008 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS). In San Bernardino County as a whole, 39 people died and 432 were injured as a result of pedestrian accidents in 2008. Also, during the same year, <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/san-bernardino-car-accident-lawyer.html" target="_blank">San Bernardino County car accidents</a> claimed 263 lives and injured 8,504 people.</p>
<p><strong>Laws Relating to Pedestrians</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, it is not entirely clear how the fatal pedestrian versus truck accident occurred. Was the pedestrian walking in a marked or unmarked crosswalk? If that was the case, the driver of the truck should have yielded right-of-way to the pedestrian. California Vehicle Code Section 21950 states: "The driver of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection." The same section also states that the driver of a vehicle approaching a pedestrian within any marked or unmarked crosswalk "shall exercise all due care and shall reduce the speed of a vehicle or take any other action relating to the operating of the vehicle as necessary to safeguard the safety of the pedestrian."</p>
<p><strong>Fault and Liability</strong></p>
<p>I trust officials are also looking into whether the truck driver was impaired, fatigued, distracted or otherwise negligent at the time. If the truck driver is determined to have been at fault here, then the driver and his or her employer could be held liable for the pedestrian's wrongful death. A skilled <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/san-bernardino-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">San Bernardino personal injury lawyer</a> will also be able to determine whether a dangerous roadway condition caused or contributed to the pedestrian accident. If that was the case, the city or governmental entity responsible for maintaining that roadway could also be held liable. Any personal injury or wrongful death claim against a governmental entity must be properly filed within six months of the incident, under California Government Code Section 911.2.</p>

<p>Authorities in Orange County are looking for a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/hitnrunreward/" target="_blank">hit-and-run</a> truck driver who they say caused an injury car accident and then left the scene. The Orange County Register reports that the truck accident happened on the southbound 57 Freeway the morning of October 14, 2010 in Placentia. A Honda Civic was struck from behind by a large truck. The Honda then went under a second big-rig. The first truck, which rear-ended the Honda, did not stop and left the scene. The driver of the Honda was transported to a local hospital for treatment.<span id="more-1925"></span></p>
<p>I sympathize with the injured victim. I hope his injuries are not major and pray that he recovers quickly and completely.</p>
<p><strong>Hit-and-Run Statistics and Law</strong></p>
<p>According to the California Highway Patrol's traffic accident statistics, there were 17,158 hit-and-run car accidents that resulted in fatalities or injuries in California in 2008. Of these <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/california-car-accidents.html" target="_blank">car accidents</a>, there were a total of 247 fatalities involving hit-and-run car accidents statewide. California Vehicle Code Section 20001 (a) states: "The driver of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting in injury to a person, other than himself or herself, or in the death of a person shall immediately stop the vehicle at the scene of the accident."</p>
<p><strong>Holding Drivers Accountable</strong></p>
<p>Leaving the scene of an injury car accident is an inhumane, immoral and irresponsible act. What kind of a person causes a serious injury accident and then flees without stopping to make sure that an injured human being receives timely medical attention? How long does it take to pick up your cell phone and call 911 so the victim can get the help he or she needs? It makes my blood boil to think that these drivers lack this basic human quality to help someone in dire need. If you witnessed this accident or have any information about the hit-and-run truck driver, please visit our web site <a href="http://www.hitandrunreward.com">www.hitandrunreward.com</a> to leave an anonymous tip and become eligible to receive a $1,000 reward.</p>

<p>Three people sustained injuries in a <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-car-accident-lawyer.html" target="_blank">Los Angeles car accident</a> the morning of October 7, 2010. According to a news report in The San Gabriel Valley Tribune, a big-rig and a pickup truck collided. California Highway Patrol officials say the large truck, carrying a load of about 40,000 pounds of dirt, was traveling east on the 210 Freeway in Pasadena, when it was cut off by another vehicle. The driver of the big-rig then lost control and crashed into the pickup truck. Both vehicles went through a concrete barrier and landed on the Metro Gold Line train tracks. The driver of the big-rig is listed in serious condition while the driver and a passenger in the pickup truck sustained moderate to serious injuries.   <span id="more-1883"></span></p>
<p>It is indeed fortunate no one suffered fatal or catastrophic injuries in this car accident, especially considering the large truck caught fire due to spilled diesel. I wish all the injured victims the very best for a quick and complete recovery.  </p>
<p><strong>Car Accident Statistics</strong>  </p>
<p>According to California Highway Patrol's 2008 Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were eight fatalities and 978 injuries reported involving car accidents in Pasadena. In Los Angeles County as a whole, 667 people died and 52,229 were injured as a result of car accidents in 2008.</p>
<p><strong>Laws and Liability Issues</strong></p>
<p>Based on this news report, it appears that this fiery <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/truck_accident.html" target="_blank">truck accident</a> may have been triggered by an unsafe lane change. California Vehicle Code Section 21658 (a) states that whenever a roadway has been divided into two or more clearly marked lanes for traffic in one direction the vehicle "shall be driven as nearly as practical entirely within a single lane and shall not be moved from the lane until such movement can be made with reasonable safety."</p>
<p>The driver who cut off the large truck here could be held liable for the injuries caused to the victims. Injured victims in such cases could seek compensation to cover medical expenses, loss of earnings, hospitalization, rehabilitation and other related damages. It would be in the best interests of injured victims to seek the counsel of an experienced <a href="http://www.bestattorney.com/los-angeles-personal-injury-lawyers/" target="_blank">Los Angeles personal injury lawyer</a>, who will advise them about their legal rights and options. </p>
<p>Seriously injured in a Los Angeles car accident?  Want to know if you have a case?  Want to know what your case is worth?  Want compensation for your injuries?  Want justice?  Want to make sure the same thing doesn’t happen to someone else?</p>
