According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), car accidents are the leading cause of wrongful death in the United States for people ages one to 30.
Unfortunately, in recent San Diego news a 21-year-old Vista woman died after the car she was driving in was broadsided. The young woman was the right front passenger of a car that was stopped in the left turn lane at a red light on westbound state Route 76 at East Vista Way.
Our San Diego car accident lawyers have all too often seen the tragic effects car accidents have on individuals. Many of these wrongful deaths can be avoided if only drivers obeyed all traffic laws and drove safely.
The 19-year-old driver in the car she was driving in proceeded to make a left turn and ran the red light causing the fatal T-bone car accident and the young woman’s wrongful death.
Mora suffered traumatic brain injuries and was taken to the hospital but died shortly thereafter. The 26-year-old SUV driver and his two passengers, as well as the driver who caused the car accident, all suffered minor injuries and were taken to hospitals for treatment.
Our car accident lawyers know that many of the top causes of car accidents that cause injuries — such as running a red light or speeding — can be avoided if only drivers knew the consequences of their reckless actions. How many more innocent lives have to be lost before drivers start obeying all traffic laws?
