Fatal Upper Peninsula Motorcycle Accident
I read a tragic story in the paper today about a Fatal Upper Peninsula Motorcycle Accident near Mesick, Michigan yesterday. According to the Wexford County Sheriff’s Department, an Arlington couple were travelling on a motorcycle on M-115, near the intersection of M-37, when a van pulling a camper allegedly turned in front of them. The bikers’ motorcycle struck the van causing serious and life threatening injuries to the bikers. The bikers were transported to Munson Medical Center where they subsequently died. Police are still investigating the accident.
I am very sorry to hear that this tragic motorcycle accident happened. My condolences go out to the family and friends of the bikers.
Our Michigan car accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of auto accident in Michigan, the family members of the deceased victims 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 car accident injury victims may also have claims for personal injuries against any driver determined to be at fault in this auto accident. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement for this type of case. In this lawsuit, the injured victims can claim damages and compensation for the injuries suffered in the accident.
Also, the family members of the deceased victims may have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused these car accidents. 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.
