Lemoore, CA — A crash involving a Ford Ranger and a Honda Civic claimed the lives of two drivers Sunday night, January 19, 2025, on Highway 41 near Lacey Boulevard, according to KSEE.
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) reported that the driver of the Honda Civic was heading eastbound on Lacey Boulevard when he failed to yield at the intersection, entering the path of the Ford Ranger. The Ranger collided with the passenger side of the Civic, resulting in a severe impact.
After the collision, both vehicles veered off the road, overturned, and came to rest in a northeast direction.
CHP reported that neither driver was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, and both were ejected from their vehicles. Tragically, they were pronounced dead at the scene.
Authorities continue to investigate the circumstances leading to the collision.
Wrongful Death Claims
Determining fault in a collision can involve multiple factors, and under California’s Comparative Liability rule, several parties can share partial responsibility. A personal injury attorney can play a crucial role in helping victims establish legal responsibility after a traffic accident.
Should someone else be found even partly responsible for the death, the family may be able to file a Wrongful Death claim against the at-fault driver’s insurance. This can provide compensation to help cover medical bills, funeral expenses, and the loss of income to support the family of the deceased.
