Lacey Head-on Collision Leaves 1 Dead and 3 Injured | Seattle Fatal Accident Lawyer

The temptation to speed when traffic is light, especially at night, is always dangerous and can lead to some of the worst auto accidents. As a Bellevue auto crash lawyer and Washington personal injury attorney, I see the devastating results of speeding on a regular basis. At nighttime, accidents are unusually frequent, despite there being 60% less drivers on the road. This should be a tell tale sign that just because you don’t see cars around you, doesn’t mean that you are safe to drive 20-30 mph over the speed limit.

Around 2:30 this morning in Lacey, a 27-year-old man died in a head-on collision with a car that contained two women and a baby. According to police reports, the man was speeding down Nisqually Cut-off Road, before crossing into oncoming traffic. He was not wearing a seatbelt, and was thrown through the windshield of his vehicle. The driver of the other car was a 27-year-old woman, who sustained serious injuries and was airlifted to Harborview Medical Hospital. It is believed that her injuries are not life-threatening. The passengers of the vehicle, a 22-year-old woman and a 1-year-old baby girl were taken to St. Peters Hospital as a precaution, but neither was seriously injured.

Fatal crashes like these are very difficult to hear about, and my deepest sympathies go out to the family and friends of the man who died. I am also relieved to hear that the victims in the accident appear to be alright, and I wish them a speedy recovery. Accidents such as these are very stressful to all those involved- particularly those survivors in a fatal car accident. The distress caused to the families in accidents such as these can lead to severe depression and anxiety. Because these are difficult situations to deal with and the friends and family are often at a loss to know what steps to take next I have written a book with attorney Patrick J. Kang titled: In Case of Death: Straight Talk on Washington Wrongful Death. If you or anyone you know faces a difficult situation as this please click on the preceding link to get it for free*.
