July 6, 2011--The third person killed in less than a week on Highway 41 in California was identified as 35 year old John Walker of Lemoore. Two other Lemoore residents were also killed on Highway 41 just one week earlier at the intersection of Highway 41 and Floral Avenue near Selma in Fresno County. Lance Corporal Benjamin Brittingham and Aviation Ordinanceman 3rd Class Grant Rollet died on July 1, 2011.
That first accident is still being investigated. From this author's viewpoint it probably involved an eastbound vehicle trying to cross the wide median at this location in one large movement as a second stop sign is not located in the median as arguably it should be. If so, then this accident mirrors the accident in Gary vs. Cal Trans set to go to trial later this year. The Gary family lost their 9 year old daughter in that accident which also took place at Floral and Highway 41. We are very much interested in investigating the relationship, if any between these two accidents. Please give us a call. Attorney John Rozier, 559-713-1059. I am located in Visalia, California, just 20 miles from the scene of these accidents.
The family of John Walker is also invited to call if you would like our engineer to go out and take a look.

Fatal accident at Highway 41 and Floral
July 1, 2011--Yesterday's fatal crash at Highway 41 and Floral in Fresno County near Selma may be a repeat of the Gary accident which is currently in litigation. Two staff members from Lemoore Naval Air Station were killed by colliding with a big rig operated by Harry Haydon of Paso Robles.
That intersection has a very large median with no middle stop sign unlike any other intersection on that stretch of road. If this accident was caused by a driver crossing Highway 41 at Floral, then we should investigate this further and push Cal Trans to fix the problem. Our law firm is scheduled to proceed to trial in December of this year over this same intersection which took the life of a 9 year old girl. Our expert engineers stand ready to continue their investigation of this unsafe area. Please give us a call. We are located in Visalia which is about 20 miles from the scene of this accident.
