Tulare County Truck Accident near Goshen on Road 60

Visalia Nursing Home Lawyer John Rozier has the following accident report; On Saturday, September 20, 2014, a vehicle collision took place in Tulare County.  The crash happened near Goshen, at about 11:30 AM.

A water truck, driven by a 45 year old Fresno man, was southbound on Road 60, north of Avenue 320.  As he was driving, the truck hit a deep pot hole, and the driver lost control of the vehicle.  The water truck swerved into the orchard, to avoid driving onto Highway 99 and into traffic.

The F650 truck hit several trees in the orchard, and flipped over.  The driver was ejected from the vehicle, and fatally injured.

He was pronounced dead at the scene of the collision.

While our condolences go out to the friends and family of the victim, we recognize that no monetary sum can ease the pain and loss felt after a tragedy such as this. However, just monetary compensation can help ease the burden of medical bills, final expenses, and help support any dependents left behind by the deceased.

Water truck Highway 41 accident claims a victim

May 11, 2010--This morning at 7:45 am a crash between a water truck and a car resulted in the death of one driver.  The accident happened on Highway 41 in Kings County near Lemoore, just north of Lacey Blvd.

Highway 41 has several dangerous crossings including a wide median at the Floral Avenue intersection with no stop sign in the median which resulted in the death of a 9 year old last year.  Highway 41 just south of Highway 198 was the scene of the death of a Kingsburg Hospital administrator, also last year.  Both cases are being investigated by the law firm of Nelson and Rozier in Visalia.  Cal Trans design defects allegedly contributed to the first accident mentioned.

This particular accident requires further investigation including a download of the air bag event data recorders to determine speed for the 5 seconds pre-accident, crush analysis of each vehicle before they are repaired, and skid analysis.  Also, data as to prior collisions at this same location can be accessed to see if a pattern of harm has resulted.  Please call tomorrow morning to get started.  Attorney John Rozier  559-713-0159 located in Visalia, just 20 miles from the scene of this accident.  http://www.nelsonrozier.com/
