Pixley Car Collision Kills Earlimart Man, at Wright Avenue, Caused by Missing Stop Sign

Central California Automobile Injury and Wrongful Death Attorney John L. Rozier has the following report; On Tuesday, April 14, 2015, a 54-56 year old Earlimart man was killed in a car collision.  The Tulare County vehicle accident took place east of Pixley, at a rural intersection, at about 11:51 AM.

The Earlimart driver was westbound on Wright Avenue in a 2001 Chevrolet.  At the intersection of Wright Ave. and Elm Street, there is supposed to be stop sign for traffic traveling on Wright.  Authorities reported that the stop sign was missing on the east side of the intersection.

The Chevy driver failed to stop at the intersection, because of the missing sign, and was broadsided by a 2011 GMC pickup truck, driven by Juan Lopez, 24 years old.  Lopez had been traveling north on Elm at the time of the incident, and did have the right-of-way.

The man died at the scene of the accident.  Lopez sustained minor injuries.

Please call Mr. Rozier to begin a claim arising from this accident.  We are located just 30 miles away in Visalia.  We need to investigate available insurances, assets, and roadway defects.  Our condolences go out to the victim's family. 559-713-0159www.nelsonrozier.com

Pedestrian Hit By Pickup on Caldwell in Visalia

On March 21, 2015, Jasmina Uson sustained severe injuries when she was struck by a pickup truck as she was pushing her one-month old baby in a stroller. The collision occurred while Uson was crossing a private parking lot on Caldwell Avenue.

Further investigation into the facts of this incident are in order. Often, the driver of the vehicle that strikes a pedestrian will be at solely at fault for the accident and will be responsible for compensating the pedestrian victim. However, even in cases where the pedestrian is also partially at fault (such as in cases where the pedestrian was not in a crosswalk) for the accident, the pedestrian can still recover partial compensation under California's system of comparative negligence. 

In cases involving comparative negligence, a court will apportion a percentage of responsibility for the pedestrians injuries to each party. For instance, it might determine that the driver was 60% at fault and the pedestrian was 40% at fault. If the pedestrian had $100,000 in medical bills, she could then recover $60,000 from the driver of the car. 

If you or a loved one have been involved in an accident involving a pedestrian and a motor vehicle, please give attorney John Rozier a call at (559) 713-0159.
