A woman has lodged a truck accident lawsuit against a truck company after losing family member in a wreck.
Plaintiff Cynthia C. is filing the truck accident lawsuit on behalf of her daughter. The plaintiff alleges that the daughter was killed on July 9, 2016, as a result of the negligent actions of the defendant.
The truck accident lawsuit says that at approximately 12:30 pm on July 9, 2016, the decedent was a passenger in a 2015 Honda CRV. The vehicle was at that time operated by Cynthia and was traveling southbound on Route 93 in Nevada.
The commercial motor vehicle involved in the truck accident, as well as trucking company, are responsible for the fatality, according to the truck accident lawsuit.
The plaintiff says she was stopped at a red traffic signal in a southbound travel lane at approximately mile marker 90 on Route 93 at the time of the accident. The traffic signal was a precautionary measure because of the nearby construction zone, states the trucking accident lawsuit.
According to the truck accident lawsuit, the tractor-trailer operated by the truck driver also named as a defendant was approaching the plaintiff’s vehicle at a high rate of speed — beyond what was established and allowed by Nevada law. The truck accident lawsuit says the driver is responsible for operating the tractor-trailer in an unsafe manner putting everyone on the road at risk and leading to the death of the plaintiff’s daughter.
The truck accident lawsuit alleges that the driver was engaged in unsafe behavior prior to the collision, nearly veering off the road surface, driving recklessly and swerving in and out of the lanes. The driver was allegedly going at an excessive rate of speed throughout his time on Route 93.
The plaintiff says she was at a complete stop when the tractor-trailer approached. The plaintiff alleges her car was hit at a speed higher than 65 miles per hour, ultimately causing the plaintiff’s vehicle to be propelled into the air and overturning completely. Significant damage was sustained by the tractor-trailer, but the truck accident lawsuit also says, the defendant driver went through the plaintiff’s vehicle and then collided directly with the car in front of the plaintiff’s vehicle.
The third vehicle was completely destroyed as a result of the serious impact, the plaintiff claims. The truck accident lawsuit says the truck driver, as well as the employer company, are responsible for the injuries sustained as well as the damage.
Those individuals who have lost family members as a result of negligence on the road might be entitled to file a truck accident lawsuit. A proper investigation of the accident scene might reveal that multiple parties, including the company leasing the truck or the employer of the truck driver, may be responsible for the accident.
The Truck Accident Lawsuit is Case No. 3:18-CV-00322-HDM-WGC, filed in the United States District Court District of Nevada.
