San Bernardino, CA – Fatal Traffic Collision on E Street

San Bernardino, CA (December 27, 2018) On the 23rd of December, a fatal traffic collision happened at the intersection of E Street and Fairway Drive at around 2:40 p.m. According to the reports, a 52-year-old man named Mike Wilmes traveled south on E Street when he approached the intersection while another vehicle was headed west on the same street. Somehow the two vehicles crashed into each other. When emergency crews arrived to offer their help, Wilmes had already suffered fatal injuries. It’s unclear whether the other driver obtained injuries from the crash. The accident is currently under investigation.

We are sorry to hear that Wilmes lost his life in this accident. We send our condolences to his family as they work through this challenging time.

Vehicle Accidents in California

Unfortunately, thousands of drivers lose their lives in vehicle accidents every year in the United States. The leading cause of most fatalities is drivers not paying attention to their surroundings. There are many reasons why drivers aren’t fully present while they drive, which include cell phone usage, speed, fatigue, alcohol consumption, and more. Not all drivers intentionally mean to put themselves and others at risk, but when they partake in negligent behavior, there’s always a chance that serious damages will occur.

The police are currently investigating this accident to figure out why the two vehicles collided. They’re checking who had the right of way and whether negligence played a role. They’re also checking road conditions and vehicle conditions in case these were contributing factors. Once the police discover what caused the accident, there’s a chance that Wilmes’ family may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit with the help of a California wrongful death attorney.
