By law, drivers are required to decrease the speed of their vehicles and provide the right of way to pedestrians along all areas of a roadway. Given the circumstances, police believe the victim may have been walking outside a crosswalk before the accident transpired. As the investigation continues, officials will consider if additional factors including DUI, negligence, recklessness, or distracted driving played any role in the events leading up to this collision. A thorough forensic examination of the vehicle and photos of the crash site will help authorities determine if mechanical failure or a system malfunction caused the motorist to lose control.

Based on the final results of the case, the members of the deceased victim’s family may have the option of pursuing a wrongful death lawsuit and, ultimately, receive compensation for funeral expenses, the tragic loss of a loved one, and additional unfortunate circumstances.
