The open road can be a place of great adventure — travel to foreign lands and new discoveries await you — but even a short road-trip in state, from one city to the next, can have it’s share of hazards.
Unfortunately, one vehicle found out the hard way. A rollover car accident has left at least one person dead on I-5 in Oceanside, but there could be more casualities if it is determinded that a passenger was ejected from the vehicle.
Our experienced auto accident attorneys in Oceanside know from working cases like this that rollover accidents can be deadly, leaving passengers inside the car with catastrophic injuries or — as is the case here – turn into a wrongful death.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reports that a sedan was traveling north on Interstate-5 when the accident occurred a few clicks south of the county-line truck-weigh station. The driver, Alen Nazarian, lost control of the car shortly before 10 p.m. According to reports, the sedan was speeding at the time of the accident, causing it to rollover and have all the window’s blown out when the roof collapsed on itself.
Nazarian passed away at the crash site, but it is still undetermined if another passenger in the vehicle was ejected and what condition they are currently in at the moment. Authorities have dispatched a helicopter to search for the other passenger, who might have walked away from the scene of the accident, if he or she is in need of medical treatment.
The auto accident attorneys who work at our firm want you to make sure that when you travel on the roads — whether it is on a long vacation or a short drive around the corner — to always obey the speed limit and take extra precautions to ensure the safety of you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road.
Through smart driving, the road can be a place of vibrant life – rather than one of tragic wrongful deaths.
