Long Island Fatal Pedestrian Accident

ADVERTISEMENTS

A 51- year-old man was struck and killed by a FedEx truck in a Long Island pedestrian accident. The 25-year-old driver of the FedEx truck has not yet been charged. The man was killed when the truck struck him and then crashed into a line of parked cars. According to this CBS news report, the truck driver and a woman seated in one of the cars were hospitalized with injuries. Witnesses apparently saw the truck traveling at a high rate of speed before the crash. Long Island city police officials are investigating the fatal pedestrian collision.

If your New York auto accident or pedestrian accident was caused by a negligent driver, you may be entitled to significant compensation to cover medical expenses, lost wages and other costs associated with your injuries. If the auto accident resulted in death, families of deceased victims may be able to file a wrongful death claim. If the negligent driver was on the job at the time of the accident, both the driver and his or her employer may be held accountable for the accident and resulting injuries.
