A car crash on Third Street and Palm Avenue in the early morning hours over the weekend left three men severely injured, one in critical condition, and hospitalized. A 19-year old man, was speeding on Third Street when he lost control, hit the curb and flipped over – landing on the roof.
Two men were able to climb out of the car, but the third one was trapped inside. The two men called for help; fire department personnel, after removing a door, were able to get the third man out.
The accident is being investigated by the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Major Accident Investigation Team. They believe alcohol is a factor in the accident.

A man wanted to be a professional cyclist but that dream ended recently when he was killed by a high school senior, who lost control of his car while racing down the street with passengers and another vehicle on the wrong side of the road. His car went across traffic and ended on the shoulder where the man was riding alone. The impact threw him into the field where he died.
The high school students were not arrested, pending an investigation. None of the students was injured. Investigators do not believe alcohol or drugs were involved. It seems racing is common on the desolate stretch of road.
My heart goes out to the man’s family.

The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin recently reported that a 65-year old man riding his bicycle in Upland was critically injured when an automobile hit him. Those that witnessed the accident told police that the man turned left in front of the automobile. The man was taken to a local hospital where he is in critical condition.
I feel badly for this man and wish him a speedy recovery.

A couple of weeks ago two brothers were riding together on a bicycle when they were hit by a hit-and-run driver. One of the brother, 19 years old, died at the scene and the other brother, 15 years old , was critically hurt; he is still in the hospital – in a medically induced coma. No one can understand how a driver could just leave two young people on the ground. Friends held a car wash to collect donations to pay for a memorial service.
San Bernardino police have identified a possible suspect and are investigating the incident. I would suggest that the suspect consult with an experienced Personal Injury attorney immediately.

The Orange County Register recently reported that there have been 34 alleged deaths from Toyota vehicles since 2000. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, complaints about the Toyota Prius hybrid grew by about 1,000 in a week. Toyota has recalled 8.5 million vehicles in the United States and other countries because of gas pedal, floor mats and brake problems.
The government is investigating these problems. According to a Toyota spokesperson, Toyota has repaired about 500,000 of the 2.3 million vehicles recalled because of a sticky gas pedal.
If you are a victim of a crash or death because of faulty Toyota equipment, contact an experienced Personal Injury attorney who can answer your questions and help you with compensation for any losses incurred.

Recently in the news, we have learned that driver negligence is not the only reason for motor vehicle accidents. Toyota has recalled about five million vehicles in two different announcements because of a potentially faulty gas pedal. This has affected many various models manufactured between 2004 and 2010.
The first recall, Floor Mat Entrapment, regards the potential for an unsecured driver’s floor mat to interfere with the accelerator pedal, causing it to stick in the wide-open position. The second recall, Pedal, is where the gas pedal has the potential to stick in a depressed position. Steve Wozniak, the Apple co-founder, announced that his 2010 Toyota Prius unintentionally accelerates to almost 100mph when he uses his cruise control. Dealers will begin receiving the new parts in the coming days. Toyota announced that new car sales of these vehicles (about 60% of Toyota dealer’s inventory) are suspended until the problem is fixed.
If you have been injured because of a faulty gas pedal, you may be entitled to receive product liability or personal injury compensation. These claims are complex so it is important to contact an experienced Personal Injury attorney to fight for you.

I thought I would begin the year off by summarizing what a personal injury is. A personal injury is the result of the negligence of another person. It can occur from an automobile accident, a slip or fall on a wet surface. It can happen outside, inside a grocery store or other type of store, or at your friend’s home.
In order to bring a lawsuit against the responsible party, the injured individual must prove that his or her injury was a result of another person’s negligence. A personal injury claim is not easy to prove. An experienced Personal Injury attorney knows just what to look for and makes sure you receive compensation for your injury.

Are you aware that three Los Angeles area hospitals, including Cedars Sinai Hospital, are under investigation for delivering an overdose of radiation to CT scan patients in less than two years? Now a Huntsville Alabama Hospital is under investigation for the same problem.
The overdose originally came from a General Electric CT scanning machine, but now includes Toshiba machines as well.
The FDA’s investigation has shown personal injury and severe side effects caused by Cedar-Sinai hospital personnel’s negligence. The investigation involves over 200 patients. Radiation overdose can cause you long-term health issues. If you are one of the over 200 patients exposed to an overdose of radiation, I would suggest you contact an experienced Medical Malpractice attorney immediately. Your health is at risk; do not wait another minute.
