Driver Hits Bear, Wildlife Very Active During This Time of The Year

Posted on by

According to local news, a driver on U.S. Highway 12 just outside Oakville hit a black bear. The accident happened some time after 8:20 a.m. on Wednesday according to the Washington State Patrol, but not much is known about the circumstances surrounding the incident.

The 49-year-old woman from Montesano was driving a 2006 Chrysler Crossfire when she reportedly hit the bear. It is believed by the authorities that the animal was injured but he ran into the woods, authorities were not able to find him.

No details on the woman’s health state were revealed. Troopers from the Washington State Patrol claim that there isn’t a full report regarding the details of the accident just yet.

As a Bellevue car accident attorney I urge all drivers to be extremely careful whenever driving in roads where wildlife signs are posted. This time of the year is when they are mostly active.

Personal injury lawyers understand that serious injuries could have been inflicted upon the driver if the accident had been any more serious. Remember to be especially watchful of the road during early mornings and early evenings. Whenever an accident caused you to be severely injured, remember that a personal injury lawyer should be contacted right away.

Woman From Ellensburg Is Uninjured After Two-Vehicle Collision

Posted on by

Various news outlets have reported that a 21-year-old woman from Ellensburg was involved in a collision on U.S. Highway 97 and fortunately was left uninjured.

The authorities claimed that the accident happened just four miles south of Leavenworth some time during Sunday afternoon. The collision occurred when a vehicle tried to make a left turn but failed to first yield to the other car carrying the 21-year-old who was sitting at the passenger seat.

The reports from the Washington State Patrol show that the 84-year-old man driving the car that caused the accident was from Pehshastin. He was allegedly injured and taken to the Hospital after the accident.

Authorities say that all drivers and passengers were wearing their seatbelts.

I, a Bellevue car accident lawyer hope that the driver who was injured will have a steadfast recovery. Hopefully this accident will serve as an example to all drivers who sometimes find themselves not paying enough attention to the road they’re traveling on.

Even familiar streets from quiet neighborhoods can pose threats if you’re not attentive to the traffic surrounding you. Whenever you’re involved in an accident that was caused by the recklessness of other drivers, contact a personal injury lawyer in your area.

Drunken Driver Causes a Rear-End Collision

Posted on by

Local news outlets have reported that there was a collision on Sunday sometime after 8:30 a.m. involving a Richland driver who was allegedly sent to jail after the authorities arrived at the scene. According to the Washington State Patrol, the woman was driving under the influence and was handling the vehicle without a valid license.

The official reports claim that the 1999 Plymouth Breeze the woman was allegedly driving failed to stop at an intersection when she hit the rear of a vehicle that had stopped at the intersection to yield to traffic.

The driver in the vehicle hit by the alleged drunken driver was in a good shape after the accident but the passenger was taken to the hospital sustaining some injuries. A personal injury lawyer in Seattle or any other area in Washington could be of great assistance to the victims of the recklessness of the driver who caused this accident.

As a Renton car accident attorney I urge all readers to never drink and drive, no matter how confident you may feel about your driving and focusing abilities. Accidents involving drinking and driving usually have tragic endings. Fortunately there’ll be no tragic ending to this case.

Hopefully this will serve as an example of the dangers of drinking and driving to all motorists reading this.

Many local news outlets in Washington State have announced the unfortunate death of a 74-year-old man in a wheelchair during the storm that hit the state Tuesday night.

According to the articles, the victim was outside watching the wind when an unexpected 60-foot tree fell on the front porch of his house. The disconsolate accident occurred in Central Park on the State’s coast.

According to the local authorities, the man struck by the falling tree was with his brother who was also in a wheelchair but inside the house they shared when the accident took place. The brother immediately called for help after the incident and was found unharmed by the authorities.

The Washington State Patrol has released information regarding other accidents that happened during the gusty winds that hit Washington on Tuesday. The stormy weather definitely had a strong impact on the routine of Washington residents.

I, an Everett personal injury attorney offer my deepest and sincerest condolences to the man who lost his brother after the brutal storm that desolated the Washington coast.

Hopefully, residents will stay away from risky areas during future brusque changes in the weather, this is a sincere wish from the personal injury lawyers in Seattle.

Several local news sources have reported earlier that an unfortunate accident involving a 24-year-old man from Arizona has claimed his life on Highway 3 in Silverdale. The tragic accident happened Monday afternoon according to official reports from the Washington State Patrol.

According to the many news articles from this morning, commute might have been very difficult for those trying to go through downtown Seattle. The Washington State Patrol has reported that a collision involving four vehicles has interfered with the traffic going northbound on Interstate 5.

The accident allegedly happened near the Mercer Street exit and according to a trooper from the Washington State Patrol, the crash happened at 7:25 a.m. today.

As a Seattle car accident lawyer I understand that many cases need more time to be investigated so the authorities will be able to determine exactly what caused the accident. Personal injury lawyers could be of great assistance to some of the drivers sadly involved in this collision.

Washington State Patrol: 96 Collisions In Less Than 20 Hours

Posted on by

According to recent local news from Wenatchee, WA, the Washington State Patrol Troopers have been investigating over 96 accidents that happened on November 16th and 17th.

The reports from the authorities show a great difficulty from drivers to adapt to the major change in weather. Most of these collisions allegedly happened because of icy roads and a lack of attention from the drivers’ part. Washington State Patrol Troopers claim that all collisions could have been prevented if all motorists just slowed down.

The authorities hope that these accidents will remind drivers to be extremely prepared for the rough weather changes during the winter.  The article also urges drivers to verify if they vehicles have the proper tires for the wintery weather and the icy roads.

As a Federal Way car accident attorney I hope that all readers understand the importance of having your vehicles completely safe for winter driving. Always have a full tank of gas and keep something warm in your car. Because of the snow, you might encounter many unexpected road closures that can slow the traffic and cause more accidents. Stay alert.

Whenever you are involved in a personal injury case that was caused by a third party, remember to contact a personal injury lawyer that will assist you with your case in a timely manner.

Crash At I-5 Causes Traffic Jam

Posted on by

According to very recent news, the very two right lanes of Interstate 5 where it interchanges with Interstate 405 are completely blocked because of a collision.

The still very inconclusive reports from the Washington State Patrol say that this was a one-vehicle accident involving a semi-truck.

The driver allegedly has serious injuries although nobody can really say it with certainty. Washington State Department of Transportation has released the footage of the crash and according to what’s been seen, the truck seems to have tried to stop under the overpass without much success.

There are many emergency vehicles stopped by the crash area and according to the last official reports, the conditions for the accident to have happened are not yet known. Authorities are trying to keep the traffic going around the accident scene.

As an Olympia personal injury lawyer I sincerely hope that the truck driver will be able to fully recover in a speedy and hassle free way. I also urge the authorities to work on the investigations that will finally demonstrate what was behind this crash so people can learn from the dangers of the road.

Whenever you’re involved in a truck accident that was completely somebody else’s fault, remember to contact a personal injury lawyer that will be able to assist you promptly.

Man Taken by The Authorities After Possible DUI-related Crash

Posted on by

According to recent news articles, a 46-year-old man from Ridgefield was taken by the authorities on suspicion of driving under the influence after a crash that happened Tuesday night. The Washington State Patrol reported that an accident was taken place sometime after 7 p.m. on Northeast 219th Street.

Officials say that a vehicle hit the rear end of another vehicle driven by a 33-year old man who ended up sustaining minor injuries. Authorities haven’t released any more information regarding the accident except that the road had to be blocked so the traffic could continue around the scene of the accident.

The Washington State Patrol is still investigating the case. To this moment it is not yet known if the driver was truly driving under the influence or not, let’s hope the authorities will handle this in a timely manner.

As a Federal Way personal injury lawyer I’m quite familiar with DUI related accidents with tragic endings. I sincerely hope that the two drivers involved in this accident will have an excellent and speedy recovery. Hopefully they will learn a thing or two about drinking and driving.

According to many news sources, the accident on I-90 involving a man from Walla Walla may have been caused by the weather.

The Washington State Patrol has reported that the rain and the snow have made the roads incredibly slippery. The 40-year-old man was driving westbound on the interstate when the vehicle slipped off the pavement and crashed into the median.

The incident happened just 14 miles west of Moses Lake sometime after 2:30 p.m., according to the reports from the Washington State Patrol. The driver was allegedly wearing his seat belt at the time of the crash. He was taken to the hospital after the accident.

As a Tacoma personal injury attorney, I sincerely hope that nobody was severely injured after this crash. Come back regularly to this blog for the latest news on local accidents and product recalls.
