1 Dead In Car Crash on Taconic State Parkway

On April 16, 2020, in Motor Vehicle Accident, by John A. Weber IV, ESQ

New York has witnessed a large number of motor vehicle accidents over the years and another one has recently occurred at East Fishkill.  With one fatality and minor injuries to other victims, the accident took place at the Taconic State Parkway.

It is yet to be seen if the surviving victims will be pursuing litigation or whether they are hiring auto accident attorneys.

What Happened Exactly?

On Tuesday, one of the drivers lost his life in a three-car crash on the Taconic State Parkway in East Fishkill. State police said that the collision occurred at the intersection of Carpenter road and the parkway.

It was discovered in the initial investigation that William T. Faint, 62, of Yorktown, was driving east on Carpenter Road in his 2006 Ford Taurus. He tried to cross the parkway but failed to yield the right of way to two cars travelling south.

A 2016 GMC Sierra, driven by Alam B. Kinghan, 60, of Croton-on-Hudson, and a 2010 Toyota Matrix, driven by Rachel A. Rosales, 60, of New York, simultaneously struck Faint’s car.

According to police, Faint’s car spun around before striking a utility pole, where it came to rest. Faint succumbed to the injuries and was declared dead after life-saving measures were administered but were unsuccessful.

Kinghan and his passenger, Richard W. Smith, were not injured. Rosales and her passenger, Mary S. Nessinger, both sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were taken to Vassar Medical Center by EmStar.

The Bottom Line:

The injured parties will face a lot of issues after this accident. While we can’t bring back those individuals who have lost their lives in the accident, the ones who have suffered physical, as well as financial damage, can get compensation. If you have suffered from an accident and are suffering due to another person’s negligence, it’s time to contact an auto accident attorney in the Bronx to pursue compensation.

Motor vehicle accidents often result in the untimely deaths of victims. Tuesday morning brought the curtain down on another life in one such horrible tragedy.

The details of the accident:

The deceased, a 52-year-old man, appeared to be fleeing a hit and run. He was fatally struck by a dump truck. The dump truck did not stop after hitting the victim in the Bronx on Tuesday.

The deceased was discovered at Country Club Road and MacDonough Place in Pelham Bay near 5 a.m. in the morning.

Prior to this, the deceased had sideswiped another vehicle in a minor crash. This crash happened on McLean Avenue. He did not stop, instead fleeing the scene, prompting the other driver involved in the crash to chase him.

How did it happen?

According to police, the victim was heading south on the Bronx River Parkway. This is when it is believed he realized three tires of his car were damaged because of the crash.

Therefore, he saw no choice but to pull over on interstate 95 using the Bruckner Boulevard Service Road. He exited his vehicle and tried to flee on foot. This is when a dump truck struck him. He simply ran in front of the truck, got hit and died instantly.

The police are now hunting for the dump truck involved in this accident, which, ironically, did not stop. The Bruckner Road exit ramp from Interstate 95 has been closed by police to investigate this accident. Keep coming back to our website to receive the latest updates about this accident.
