I read a tragic story in the paper this morning about a fatal Belleville drunk-driving rollover accident that occurred in the early morning hours today in Van Buren Township on I-94. According to police, a westbound Jeep Liberty, with a driver and three passengers, veered off I-94 and flipped multiple times near the rest stop between Bellville Road and Rawsonville Road. Three of the car’s occupants were thrown from the vehicle. One passenger died and the others were taken to a local hospital. Police are still investigating this accident and believe alcohol was a factor in the crash.

A woman driving a red Ford Escort on I_94 lost control of her while talking on her cell phone and caused a five car accident. After losing control and crossing two lanes of traffic , she collided with a Detroit Police Car. Her car rolled and three other cars tried to avoid the initial collision. Two police officers and the driver of another car were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

I am very sorry hear that this accident happened and I hope that the police officers and other driver are able to recover completely from their injuries.

A Dearborn car accident has led to the death of a man from Belleville.  The accident occurred on I-94 near Greenfield Road on November 22, 2008.  Bradley Ryan was sitting in his car with the car in park as the freeway reopened after being closed for a highway fire.  Although traffic had resumed normal flow, Bradley Ryan’s car remained in park.  His car was hit by a postal truck.  The accident is still under investigation.

This is a very unfortunate accident.  I want to extend my sympathies to this man’s family.  I am very sorry this accident occurred.

Until the accident investigation is finished, it will be impossible to determine who was at fault for the accident.  This does not prevent Bradley Ryan’s family from getting some immediate assistance with their expenses, however.  They can still file a survivor loss claim with their No Fault insurance company.  Survivor loss benefits will help them pay for a portion of the funeral expenses and will also provide them with payments for loss of financial support and for loss of household services.  The family should speak with a lawyer for help in submitting their survivor loss claim.
