Fatal Macomb County Bicycle-Truck Accident
I read a tragic story about a Fatal Macomb County Bicycle-Truck Accident in today’s paper. According to police, a bicyclist was killed in Shelby Township when he was allegedly hit by a septic tanker truck on Van Dyke near 22 Mile Road. Police are still investigating the accident.
I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and affer the family of the bicyclist my most heart-felt condolences.
Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of accident, the family members of the deceased passenger may be able to make a claim for Survivor Loss Benefits. This can include payment of funeral expenses, lost wages, and loss of other services.
In addition, the family of the car accident injury victim may also have claims for personal injuries against any driver determined to be at fault in this auto accident as well as the owner of the septic tanker truck. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case. In this lawsuit, the family of the injured victim can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident.
Also, the family members of the deceased bicyclist may have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused these car accidents as well a possible claim against the owner of the septic truck. At the very least, the surviving family should hire the best possible lawyer to look into these possibilities.
An experienced Michigan car accident lawyer can assist the victim with this type of claim. Accident victims should not speak with the insurance adjuster for the negligent driver before consulting with an attorney.
