A motor vehicle accident in the Bronx resulted in the death of the driver. The driver’s female passenger was injured in this accident as well.
The details of this accident:
This accident happened at about 2:30 a.m. on Sunday. It occurred when a 22-year-old man was driving his 2009 Subaru sedan on the Northbound Hutchinson River Parkway in the Bronx, says the NYPD (New York Police Department). The initial police investigation reveals that the Subaru sedan collided with a 2007 BMW.
A 33-year-old female was driving the BMW, also travelling northbound. The impact of this motor vehicle accident was so severe that the Subaru sedan continued moving after the collision and hit a tree.
Both were taken to a nearby medical facility where the Subaru’s driver was pronounced dead by doctors. The woman injured in the accident was in critical condition. The driver of the BMW involved in the accident, and her 48-year-old passenger, did not suffer any injuries. Both of them remained at the scene.
The police are investigating this accident further, but the identification of the deceased is pending for the family notification, said authorities.

An out of control car caused a Nassau County bus stop crash. Four people were injured in the crash as reported by News 12. Faulty equipment and failure to maintain a motor vehicle can lead to accidents like the one in New Hyde Park when a blown tire caused a car to crash into a bus stop. People may not realize that, depending on the reasons for the tire failure, the owner and driver can be liable for injuries caused by faulty equipment or maintenance failures in New York motor vehicles.
Many times, car crashes and the resulting liability is clear cut. Other times it is very difficult to determine where the fault lies in car crashes. Juries are taxed with the burden of deciding how to apportion fault in personal injury trials. It is almost impossible to predict jury outcomes and any lawyer will tell you that. Therefore it makes logical sense to spend time maintaining your motor vehicles and do your very best to avoid preventable car crashes.

MTA Accident Injures Several People
It seems like everyday we see terrible MTA bus accidents that involve serious life changing injuries. At least ten people were injured in New York City when an MTA bus smashed into an overpass as it jumped the curb. You can read the ABC New York, channel 7 story here.
Innocent MTA bus passengers are injured when MTA bus drivers that are supposed to be watching the road drive negligently. Under New York law, when an injured person has a claim against the MTA, the city of New York, or other government agencies, you must file a Notice of Claim with the city within 90 days after the accident. The Notice of Claim must have sufficient detail for the city to investigate your claim and prepare for litigation. A previous article on this website, found here, may add incite to the Notice of Claim process. Personal injuries caused by negligence on the part of municipalities, their departments like the MTA or the employees of municipalities can result in sizable compensation. Liability for these personal injuries obviously play a large role in the strength of a case and damages (the type and extent of the injury) as always will determine the amount of compensation that will be awarded to the victim.
Having the right legal representation could mean the difference between recovering a monetary award for your injuries and dismissal of your case. Taking the time to find an attorney that you are comfortable with and who understands the nuances of personal injury litigation is an investment that can pay off big in the long run.
