San Diego Car Accident Leaves 1 Dead

San Diego Car Accident Lawyer – Earlier today, March 2, 2010, a driver died in a San Diego Car Accident.  The collision happened just south of Ocean View Blvd. on State Route 15 around 11:35 a.m.  The car accident occurred when a car struck the rear of a 18 wheeler truck.  The big rig truck was disabled and on the side of the road.  While the exact cause of the accident is unknown at this time, you can see from the picture below that the roads were wet at the time of the picture which makes us wonder if  a wet road played a role in the accident.

You can also see from the picture that the force of the car accident was large as the car initially struck the rear of the semi truck but ended up in front of it.

Our hearts go out to the family of the deceased driver.

It is alway tragic when a life is unnecessarily lost.   Our San Diego Car Accident Attorneys would like to remind you to keep an eye out for any vehicles on the shoulder of the road as they are often disabled and unable to move and also in a dangerous spot for everyone.  A simple rule to keep in mind is to follow the person in front of from far enough back that you will be able to stop without having to change lanes or go onto the shoulder.

Pedestrian Killed After Being Struck By School Bus In Fallbrook

San Diego County Pedestrian Accident Lawyer — While leaving a romantic gesture with chalk on the road outside of his girlfriend’s Fallbrook home, a man was struck and killed by a school bus.  The man, Deio Alcala, was kneeling the turn land on Reche Road.  According to the California Highway Patrol, the man looked up but did not move in time and the 25 person bus hit him around 5:45 a.m. on Friday February 26, 2010. The impact knocked him into a Ford Explorer and he died at the scene.  It appears that there were no people on the bus other than the driver, who was unhurt.

While it is unclear at this time if the driver had time to stop, we want to remind everyone to keep a special lookout for pedestrians when driving. They are unprotected and a great risk of injury.

Our San Diego Pedestrian Auto Accident Lawyers want to remind you that as a pedestrian, you need to take special care when crossing the highway.  This is especially true when you have been drinking.  While it is not exactly clear if the woman was crossing at a cross walk (it appears she was not), it is also important that you cross only at cross walks.  Obviously in a collision between a pedestrian and an automobile, the automobile will typically win.
