81-year-old Barbara Fritschel was struck and injured in a serious pedestrian wreck that occurred on February 21, 2012, around 8:30 a.m. on a Thousand Oaks sidewalk. According to the authorities, Fritschel and 79-year-old Martha Bielke were walking on a sidewalk in the 1400 block of Calle de Oro. Both of them stumbled and fell while trying to move out of the path of a motorist backing out of a driveway.
The driver, 63-year-old Marsha Mann, did not see the pair and continued backing up. He drove over Fritschel. Immediately afterward, Mann stopped at the accident to call for help. Fritschel was treated at the scene and was later transported to Los Robles Hospital & Medical Center. She is in stable condition but remained in intensive care. Bielke suffered minor injuries and was treated at the accident scene.
From the present facts, it is unclear how this pedestrian accident occurred. Officials believe that Mann accidentally drive over Fritschel. In situations such as this one, where a pedestrian is the victim of a serious car accident, the family members of the victim may benefit from speaking with a Ventura pedestrian accident lawyer.
Our personal injury law office hopes that the injuries suffered by the victim do not prove fatal.

A 17-year-old boy was severely injured in a serious pedestrian accident that
occurred on February 21, 2012, around 11 a.m. at an East San Diego County intersection. According to Sonny Saghera, a spokesman for Heartland Fire & Rescue Department, the teen was trying to cross the tracks when an eastbound train hit him at La Mesa Boulevard and Spring Street.
Emergency crews had to pull the boy out from underneath the trolley. Medics responding to this serious train accident took him to Sharp Memorial Hospital for treatment of critical injuries. If it hadn’t been for the conductor’s quick response, the boy could have lost his life.
From the present facts, it is unclear how this pedestrian accident occurred. Witnesses say that the boy apparently was aware of the approaching light-rail train and tried to beat it across the tracks. Until a further investigation is done, no one will know for sure.

recklessness, the injured passengers may be eligible to receive compensation to cover their medical bills and loss of earned wages. The victims’ families should file a personal injury lawsuit against the driver to get the money they need.

One man suffered serious injuries in a car accident that occurred on December 26, 2011, around 1:45 a.m. on I-5 just north of state Route 905 (SR-905). According to California Highway Patrol officer Jesse Udovich, the victim had a flat tire and was waiting for assistance when he was struck by an alleged drunk driver.
The drunk driver Raul Hernandez was travelling northbound when his vehicle struck a Chevrolet Malibu parked on the right shoulder. The collision made the Malibu overturn several times. The victim had to crawl out of the wreck and suffered a cut on his head.
Hernandez was booked into San Diego Central Jail on suspicion of drunken driving. From the present information, it appears that the negligent driving and irresponsible actions of the motorist led to this serious car wreck that left one person seriously injured.
Hernandez will most likely be found to have violated California Vehicle Code Section 23152(a) which states that “It is unlawful for any person who is under the influence of any alcoholic beverage or drug, or under the combined influence of any alcoholic beverage and drug, to drive a vehicle.”
The victim’s family members should immediately seek counsel from an experienced San Diego County DUI auto accident lawyer who would educate them about their legal rights. The victim’s family members may file a personal injury claim against the car driver to obtain compensation to cover medical, hospital and treatment cost, loss of wages, loss of earning capacity, and other accident-related damages.
Our personal injury law office hopes that the injuries suffered by the motorist heal soon and do not prove fatal.
