VISALIA, CA – According to the California Highway Patrol, a solo vehicle accident in the early morning claimed one life. The Fresno Communications Center received complaints about a solitary car crash on West Street, north of Cartmill Avenue, in an unincorporated region of Tulare County, according to police, at around 1:04 a.m. on Wednesday. The Visalia Area Office of the California Highway Patrol sent out officers to the location to conduct an investigation.

The initial findings show a guy who has not been named was operating a Honda Civic northbound on West Street, north of Cartmill Avenue.

The Honda’s driver permitted the car to veer off the road and onto West Street’s east shoulder for an unspecified reason. As a result, the Honda’s driver’s side hit a power pole and subsequently hit a concrete building. The Honda crossed a dry irrigation channel before tipping over onto its roof and landing in a walnut grove. According to police, the Honda’s driver was wearing a seatbelt and was pronounced dead at the site.

Authorities claim that this crash may have been caused by drinking or narcotics.

Visalia Wrongful Death Lawyers

More than 2,900 people are injured in truck accidents throughout California each year. Commercial vehicles can weigh up to 80,000 pounds, which means they have the potential to cause catastrophic injuries to victims involved in collisions. This is particularly true when victims are traveling in smaller vehicles. The mental, physical, and emotional consequences of semi-truck accidents are often overwhelming. 

There are many instances where traffic accidents are caused by the actions of other motorists. These accidents can include people texting or using cellphones while driving, drunk driving, speeding, ignoring traffic control devices, and engaging in unsafe driving behaviors. To make matters even worse, victims often face stacking medical bills, lost wages, and thousands of dollars in bills to replace or repair their vehicles.

 When victims are injured in truck collisions resulting from negligent and reckless drivers, they should reach out to a truck accident attorney in Visalia as soon as possible. Victims may be entitled to compensation to help alleviate the financial burdens they face moving forward.
