Kentucky Car And Truck Accident Lawyer: Single Vehicle Crash On Gene Snyder Freeway (I-265) Claims Life Of Louisville Man
Trevor L. Harris of Louisville died from multiple blunt force injuries suffered in a severe rollover crash on the Smyrna Road exit off of I-265 (Gene Snyder Freeway). Mr. Harris was a passenger in the Mitsubishi Eclipse and wearing his seatbelt. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police are investigating and believe alcohol to be a factor because of the multiple beer cans found in the car and the smell of alcohol on both Mr. Harris and the driver. A witness says that the Eclipse was traveling at a high rate of speed, the driver lost control and the car flipped several times.
Our sympathies and condolences go out to the friends and family of the deceased. This death unfortunately adds to the increasing number of fatalities on Kentucky roadways as I have been reporting on here at kentuckyinjurylawyerblog.com.
A crash like this raises many questions, such as whether there are causes other than driver error. It is imperative that a full investigation take place to determine if there were any factors at play causing this tragedy that are not readily apparent and to preserve evidence.
Although the police are conducting an investigation to determine the cause, and they typically good job, it is often important for someone involved in this type of accident, or a surviving family member or friend, to do their own investigation. Hiring a lawyer experienced in handling car wrecks can assure a victim of such a wreck, or the family, that their interests and rights are being protected.
A lawyer experienced in handling car and truck wrecks will know what to do to uncover any underlying causes that do not appear on the surface and may go unrecognized in other investigations. For instance, I have seen many accidents where the crashworthiness of the vehicle was never considered, but should have been.
