There was a tragic story in the news yesterday about a Brighton Township car accident. One man was killed in the car accident, while three other individuals suffer injuries. The accident took place on Thursday, June 3rd, at 7:30 a.m. on I-96 at Spencer Road. According to police, a car exiting from westbound I-96 to Spencer Road overturned causing the driver and two other passengers to be ejected from the car. Two of the individuals who were ejected from the car were taken to the University of Michigan Hospital, where one of them died. The passenger that was not ejected had to be removed from the car with the help of the Brighton area firefighters and suffered injuries as well. The driver suffers only minor injuries. Speed appears to be a factor in the accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident. My condolences go out to the family members of the man who was killed in the accident and wish the three other individuals recover from the accident without any permanent damages or injuries.

Our Michigan accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of Michigan car accident, the car accident victims could make a claim for Michigan no-fault benefits even if they did not own a car or have a no-fault benefit insurance policy. This includes payment of medical expenses, prescription costs, and wage and income loss benefits if there are any.

The family members of the deceased man 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. The family members of the deceased man may also have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused the accident.

Additionally, the injured victims can also make a claim for personal injuries against the negligent driver. The insurance company for the negligent driver typically pays a settlement.

A tragic fatal car  accident in Brighton Township took the lives of three young men and caused serious injuries to a fourth.   The accident occurred on Hacker Road just north of McClements Road early Monday morning.  Police discovered this tragic single car accident and are still investigating.

My sincerest condolences go out to all of the families.  I hope that the surviving passenger has a quick and full recovery.

Under the Michigan No-Fault Insurance laws, the surviving passenger can have all of his medical expenses paid by the designated auto insurance company.  To determine which company is responsible for these and other benefits, it is necessary to go through a checklist to figure out which insurance company has priority for payment.  These benefits include more than medical bills and can be substantial.  There are time requirements for filing these claims so it is important to start on them right away.

There are a variety of other possible claims and lawsuits available to the surviving family members.  These include No-Fault Insurance benefits and possible claims under the Michigan Wrongful Death Statute.

Deer accidents account for over 20% of Livingston County car accidents, according to a new report.  The Southeast Michigan Council of Governments reports that, overall, deer accidents were down slightly as compared to last year.  But this overall trend masks a high absolute number of deer-related car accidents, especially in areas with large deer populations.

1157 out of 5401 crashes in Livingston County involved deer.  The area within Livingston County with the highest number of deer crashes is Brighton Township.  October and November area consistently the months with the highest number of deer-related car accidents so all drivers should keep an especially careful lookout during this time of year.

If someone is injured in a deer-related car accident, Michigan No Fault benefits will provide the same coverage they would in any other car accident.  The Michigan car accident attorneys at Buckfire & Buckfire encourage all drivers to review their insurance policies and to speak with a lawyer if they are involved in a car accident.
