An early morning accident claims the life of a person in Madison County. Police say the driver of a Dodge Neon crossed over into the path of another car on Kentucky 1016 East of Berea, when the vehicles collided. The driver of the Neon was ejected from the car. That driver was then hit again by another vehicle headed East. The victim died at the scene. Police will release their name after their family has been contacted. Another driver was taken to the hospital for a leg injury.
We are starting to see a lowering of cross over type collisions on Kentucky’s roadways since the installation of cable barriers, however there are still fatal collisions on occasion, says attorney Finis Price with Kentucky Lawyers. If you are involved in such a collision, it is imperative that you contact an attorney as soon as possible to ensure a swift and proper investigation of the accident takes place. “You cannot always rely on what the police investigation tells you and the longer you wait the more evidence is lost,” says Price.
