Woman Dies from Internal Injuries Suffered during Auto Accident

Local law enforcement is still investigating a car accident that caused one fatality and serious injuries to another motorist last week in Los Angeles County. Initial reports show that one of the motorists may have attempted to take a turn without being able to control her car. A 48-year-old woman was heading south on a busy roadway around 10 a.m. when she attempted to navigate a turn but misjudged and drifted into the northbound lane. A truck in the northbound lane was unable to avoid hitting her head-on, causing both vehicles to stop traffic. The woman was brought to a local hospital but later died of multiple internal injuries.

The truck driver was also transported to the hospital but survived the accident. He is said to have suffered serious injuries that could keep him in the hospital for days. Sustaining such serious injuries is quite common during truck accidents. For this reason, if you were severely injured during a collision with a truck, you should contact the Law Offices of Gerald L. Marcus today and set up a time to discuss your case with a Los Angeles personal injury attorney. Learn what options you have, such as filing a personal injury lawsuit to seek monetary damages.
