Motor vehicle accidents: Head-on crash kills 1, injures 2

A recent head-on collision in West Virginia killed one person and left two others in the hospital with serious injuries. Motor vehicle accidents that take place under similar scenarios run the unfortunate risk of placing the well-being of those involved in jeopardy. Such accidents could leave those involved facing a long road to recovery or leave their surviving family members grieving over a sudden and unexpected loss.

Law enforcement agents responded to reports of a two-vehicle accident on a recent Friday. Initial investigations suggest that the accident was a head-on crash and that the impact of the collision forced one of the vehicles involved to overturn. Upon arriving at the scene, emergency responders worked to rescue those involved from within the two severely-damaged vehicles.

Police have advised that as many as three people were injured in the crash, two of whom were transported to a nearby medical facility for treatment of serious injuries. The third person was reportedly pronounced dead at the scene of the crash. While an investigation is underway, many of the details surrounding how the accident occurred remain unclear.

Suffering severe harm or losing someone close in a collision can be a harrowing experience. In motor vehicle accidents that come as the result of another party’s negligent actions, the victims or their surviving loved ones could choose to speak with a personal injury attorney for guidance on their available legal avenues. An attorney can examine the incident and assist a client in West Virginia in pursuing the full amount of restitution entitled through a claim against the party deemed responsible.
