Henrietta Auto Accident Inflicts Fatal Injuries

ADVERTISEMENTS

An 82-year-old woman has died from injuries she suffered in a Nov. 7 chain reaction car accident in Henrietta that injured several people, according to this news report . Sally Erwin died on November 22, 2008. The incident reportedly occurred on East Henrietta Road when a vehicle rear-ended a second car, which was then pushed into the oncoming lane hitting a third car. Six people suffered injuries and were taken to an area hospital.

This is a tragic auto accident. The person at fault here seems to have been that first car, which rear-ended the second vehicle. The rest of it was a chain reaction. The key here is to find out what caused this accident. Was the driver under the influence of alcohol or drugs? Was he or she distracted by something or someone inside the vehicle? Was the driver traveling at an unsafe speed? There is also a small chance that the rear-end accident could have happened because of a mechanical malfunction in the vehicle.

Clearly, this is a complex auto accident that requires in-depth investigation. The injured victims and the family of Sally Erwin would be well-advised to retain the services of a truly experienced New York auto accident attorney who will determine what went wrong here and who should be held responsible for the accident, injuries and fatality. The wrongdoer, if he or she was operating under the influence, must be held criminally and civilly responsible for the injuries and loss.
