Fatal Snowmobile Accident on White Lake

There was a tragic story in the paper today about two friends killed in a fatal snowmobile accident on White Lake January 3 in Oakland County. According to the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office, two friends were snowmobiling south of Ormond Road when they allegedly collided head-on in the darkness on the frozen lake. The Sheriff also stated that an alleged electrical malfunction caused the headlights to cease working on one of the snowmobiles, which may have contributed to the fatal accident. Police are still investigating this accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and offer my most sincere condolences to the families of the deceased riders for their loss.

Our Michigan snowmobile accident lawyers advise accident victims of their legal rights. For this type of motor vehicle accident in Michigan, the family members of the deceased riders 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 snowmobile accident injury victims may also have claims for personal injuries against any driver determined to be at fault in this 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 riders may have a claim for a Michigan wrongful death lawsuit against the driver that police determine was negligent and caused this accident.  At the very least, the surviving family members 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.

Fatal Kalkaska County Off-Road Vehicle Accident

I read an tragic story in today’s news about a Fatal Kalkaska County Off-Road Vehicle Accident in Orange Township on July 18th. According to the Michigan State Police, the accident happened when the driver of a 2000 Polaris Sportsman 4-wheeler allegedly lost control of the off-road vehicle while on East Trail near Antler Road.

While the off-road vehicle is designed for one person, two other people were riding on it. State Police say that all three riders, none of whom were wearing helmets, were thrown from the vehicle. Two of the riders were taken to Munson Medical Center with serious injuries. One of the riders was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident. State Police believe alcohol was a factor in this terrible accident and continue to investigate.

I am very sorry to hear about this accident. My most heart-felt condolences to the family of the deceased rider and I wish the fullest and speediest recovery to the surviving riders.
