Even though the criminal civil court systems are completely separate, there may still be some overlap in certain cases. For example, a person facing a criminal case for murder could also be sued by the victim’s family for wrongful death. The evidence that is used in the criminal case may be used in the civil case, and vice versa. However, just because someone is found not guilty in criminal court does not mean that they will be free from liability in a civil court. The two courts differ because of the degree of proof that they require—criminal court requires that the jury or judge finds the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and the civil court only depends on whether the court finds that there is liability with a preponderance of evidence (over 50%).

On February 2, 2010, Joshua West was killed as he rode his bicycle through the intersection of Lark Avenue and Garden Hill Drive in Los Gatos. The SUV driver was Kevin Derr, who allegedly sped through the intersection and lost control. Witnesses have told police that they watched as Derr sped into the right turn lane, went up onto the sidewalk and hit West, then continued through the intersection where he hit the base of a traffic light. After investigating the accident, police determined that Derr’s driving was grossly negligent because of the weather conditions and the fact that he did not intend to make a right hand turn.

Derr was injured and taken to a hospital; West was the single father to a 7 year old girl. Derr now faces charges of vehicular manslaughter, and may also face a civil lawsuit by West’s daughter and other family members. Even though West’s daughter is still a minor, she can still file the lawsuit, likely through a legal guardian or a family member.

Big rig trucks can be very dangerous on the road, particularly if the driver is inexperienced or if the load is improperly distributed or carried. There may also be problems with the road that can cause trucking accidents, such as pot holes or uneven pavement. The California Highway Patrol compiled statistical information on accidents involving trucks in their SWITRS system.

• In 2007, there were 365 people killed in truck collisions and 10,024 people injured by trucking accidents;
• The highest number of injuries in 2007 occurred in August, while the highest number of fatalities occurred in October;
• In four fatal collisions in 2007, the primary collision factor was that the truck driver was intoxicated at the time of the accident;
• The majority of cases in 2007 where the truck driver was at fault occurred when the driver was driving at an unsafe speed;
• Out of 3,557 fatal vehicle collisions in 2007, 320 of those were truck collisions;
• Out of 184,994 injury collisions in 2007, there were 6,942 truck collisions.

Driving a big rig truck can be dangerous, particularly on narrow roads or high speed areas. The cargo on the trucks may also contribute to their dangerousness, as it may alter the operation of the vehicle. Smaller cars and bicycle riders must also be cautious around big rigs because they fit perfectly into the truck’s blind spot and may get stuck under the vehicle. The lawyers of Greenberg & Rudman LLP have over 50 years of combined experience and may be able to help you in your case.

Product liability cases address problems that consumers face with the products that they buy. The product can be food, furniture and vehicles. These lawsuits are implemented to protect the consumer in case the product that they buy poses great unexpected dangers. Product liability lawsuits include defective products, and products that are inherently dangerous. These lawsuits do not include the improper use of these products. For example, crayons are meant to be drawn with and not eaten—if your child eats crayons and suffers medical problems as a result, then it will likely be attributed to the lack of supervision and not to the manufacture or design of the crayon.

A woman, Latoya Duckett, in Alabama won an $8.5 million lawsuit on Wednesday, October 14, 2009 for injuries that she suffered in a rollover accident. The lawsuit was filed against the Ford Motor Company in 2005 over an accident involving a Mercury Mountaineer; Duckett claimed that the vehicle was unstable and rolled over too easily. There were two fatalities and two injuries in the car accident. Duckett had to have her right leg amputated below the knee and has lost the use of her left arm. According to court testimony, another car had drifted to the SUV’s lane, and when the SUV went to the left lane to avoid the vehicle, it flipped and rolled over four and a half times.

The $8.5 million damage amount was entirely for compensatory damages and not for punitive damages. This means that the money is used to reimburse Duckett for the wages that she lost, or to pay for medical bills and not for issues like pain and suffering. If you or someone you know has been injured in an accident, call Greenberg & Rudman LLP now.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released a report in 2002 about the characteristics of fatal rollover crashes. These were their findings:

• There were approximately 42,000 fatalities annually between 1991 and 2002;
• About 75% of the occupants of fatal rollover crashes were not wearing seatbelts or other restraints;
• Rollover crashes constitute about 20% of all fatal crashes;
• SUV rollover crashes doubled between 1991 and 2002, growing more than any other class of light trucks;
• Speed is considered to be an important factor in rollover crashes—most crashes occurred while the vehicle was going 55 miles per hour or faster;
• Through the statistics, the drivers of the rollover vehicles seem to be men under 40 years of age who were driving on two way roads with no dividing barriers;
• Rollover crashes are more likely to result in fatalities than are non-rollover crashes;
• In 2000, approximately 36% of sport utility vehicles involved in a crash experienced a rollover;
• In most cases where the passengers were restrained during a rollover accident, they were not ejected from the car;
• Most rollover fatalities were single vehicle accidents.

The increase in SUV rollover crashes can be correlated to the increase in popularity of the vehicles. Rollover crashes may be more common in light trucks and SUVs because of their high center of gravity. Passenger weight makes rollover accidents less likely in passenger cars but the weight actually increases the likelihood of a rollover accident in SUVs.

Recently in California, talking on the cell phone without an earpiece or texting on a cell phone has been outlawed while driving. Lawmakers have made these strict driving laws in response to the increasing accidents caused by cell phones. A recent study by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute showed that texting while driving increases the chance of crashing 23-fold. If your car accident was caused by someone who was texting or talking illegally on their cell phone while they drove, then you may be able to obtain compensation for your damages if you were injured. Call Greenberg & Rudman LLP at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) for a free consultation.

The Institute conducted its research by observing light vehicle and truck drivers for more than six million miles. What the study revealed was that when the drivers of heavy trucks texted while they were driving, their collision rate was 23 times greater than if they were not texting. The study also found that reaching for a cell phone, using it or dialing a number actually increases the chance of a collision approximately six times in cars and trucks. In collisions involving cell phones, it was found that drivers spent approximately five seconds looking down at their phones. This means that if the driver was going at 55 miles per hour, it would be enough time to cover the length of a football field.

In civil lawsuits, being able to show that someone else was negligent and at fault is very important to the success of your case. If you have been injured by someone who was on their cell phone, and did not follow the laws of the state, then you may be compensated for your injury and your property damage. The attorneys at Greenberg & Rudman LLP are committed to obtaining compensation for victims who have been injured by the negligence of others. Give us a call now at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) for your free and confidential consultation. Check us out at www.alawpro.com to read more about negligence and personal injury cases.

Drivers are required to take tests to obtain their driver’s license, and may be required to do additional testing in future years in order to keep their license up to date. Many times, when accidents happen, they are just that—accidents, and there might not necessarily be a single person to blame for the incident. But when someone has already been careless, such as failing to renew his license, or driving on a suspended license, the blame for the accident may be attributed to him.

Recently, the Anaheim Angels pitcher, Nick Adenhart, and two others were killed in a collision when a car driven by Andrew Thomas Gallo broadsided them in Anaheim, California. Adenhart died while in surgery from injuries sustained in the crash. The driver of the other car, Gallo, was driving on a suspended license because of a previous drunk driving conviction, and had run a red light before hitting them. On April 10, 2009, the Orange County district attorney’s office charged Gallo with three counts of murder, driving under the influence, driving with a blood alcohol level over .08 and an enhancement that he inflicted great bodily injury. Even though the district attorney’s office has filed criminal charges against Gallo, Adenhart’s family may also choose to pursue a lawsuit in the civil arena.

We represent people who have been seriously injured as well as the families of those who have been killed under wrongful death circumstances. At Greenberg & Rudman LLP, you speak directly to an experienced California personal injury lawyer. All consultations are free and confidential, so call us now at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO).

Klairmont crashed the car into a utility box and was cited for a DUI after police registered his blood alcohol level of .146. As a result of the accident, Baldwin was paralyzed from the chest down. Klairmont admitted fault, so the trial was only on how much the damages should be. Klairmont’s insurance company will be responsible for the damages in this case.

In these accidents, it is likely that there was some degree of negligence involved, either on the part of the driver or the victim. A victim, even if he was seriously injured or killed, could be held negligent for the accident which caused his injury or death. For example, Billy is driving his car down the street and runs a red light. However, as he is crossing that intersection, he realizes that there is a pedestrian, who has the right of way, crossing the street. In an attempt to miss the pedestrian, Billy swerves his car into a telephone pole and suffers major injuries as a result of that. The court would have to take into consideration all other factors in the case, but it would be unlikely that Billy could sue the pedestrian for being in the crosswalk because it was his own negligence (running the red light) which caused the accident. However, the pedestrian might be able to sue Billy if the pedestrian tripped and broke his wrist, or if the pedestrian broke something very valuable in the accident.

Thus, even if you were not significantly injured, you may still recover money for your property damages and other compensation if it was the other party who was negligent. If you have been injured in a car accident, you should contact Greenberg & Rudman LLP as soon as possible. We are experienced trial attorneys who have taken on big insurance companies and won. Call us now at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) for a free consultation. Go to our website, www.alawpro.com to find out more about our law firm.

Many car accidents are merely accidents—resulting from an uncontrollable element such as poor road design or weather conditions. However, many other car accidents are caused by the negligence of one or more drivers. Such negligence could range from failing to turn on one’s headlights in a rainstorm, to driving above the speed limit, to consuming alcohol before getting in one’s car. In cases involving a car and a pedestrian, there might be less negligence on the part of the pedestrian than that of the driver. These cases may cause the most damage to the pedestrian, even with a small amount of negligence. In San Francisco and San Jose over the last few days, there have been some significant car accidents involving pedestrians.

On Monday, January 26, 2009, two men were struck by a car near the intersection of Van Ness and Pacific Avenues. They were hit shortly before 2 a.m. by a San Francisco resident. One of the pedestrians stuck was San Jose resident, and he suffered injuries that were life threatening. The other pedestrian suffered minor injuries. The driver attempted to flee the site of the accident, but was stopped a block away by witnesses who detained him until police officers reached the scene. In an unrelated accident on the same night, an 81 year old woman was struck and killed in the Sunset District. She was walking across Santiago Street when she was struck. It is reported that there were no stop signs or traffic lights at that intersection.

On Monday morning in San Jose, a father and son were struck on their way to the boy’s school. They were walking in the crosswalk of Story Road and Adrian Way at approximate 8 a.m. The father and son were crossing a green light when they were struck. They both sustained injuries but are expected to survive. On Friday, January 30, 2009, police arrested the driver of the car, Marvin Martinez, on charges of felony hit and run.

Being involved in an accident is an especially difficult time for the victim and their family. Not only are they worrying about the victim’s condition, but may also be worried about how to cover the medical costs, or how the family will survive financially if the victim was the sole bread winner.

The new year has brought about an influx of drunk driving accidents, many of them resulting in serious injury or death. In DUI accidents in which the drunk driver was acting recklessly, the victim, or their family, could potentially recover from the drunk driver for damages that the accident caused. In such cases, the court may look at whether the driver acted recklessly or negligently by drinking an illegal amount and getting behind the wheel of a car. Drunk drivers are also subject to fines and imprisonment from local law enforcement.

On Thursday, January 22, 2009, Francisco Molina Quevedo crashed into another car on Highway 101. Mr. Quevedo was arrested for DUI and for driving without a license. Witnesses have reported that Mr. Quevedo was trying to pass another car by driving onto the right shoulder at about 90 to 100 miles per hour. After he lost control of the car, he ran into a Jaguar driver Ramone Martinez and passenger Maria Bernal. Ms. Bernal was taken to the hospital with head and hip injuries, but Mr. Martinez and Mr. Quevedo were not injured.

The report included an evaluation of approximately 42,000 miles of streets and roads in the Bay Area. The maximum possible score in the pavement condition index (PCI) is 100. The Bay Area rated at 65 in the 2005-2007 time period. Once the PCI reaches 60 points, then the roads and streets begin to deteriorate rapidly. The MTC has reported that roads in the 70-79 point range, which would mean that the pavement is in “good condition”, are less costly to maintain while those with a PCI of about 60 will cost more for rehabilitation or reconstruction.

A breakdown of certain Bay Area roads are as follows: twelve percent were rated “excellent”; twenty three percent were “very good”; twenty percent were “good”; twelve percent were “fair”; ten percent are “at risk of rapid deterioration”; fourteen percent were poor; eight percent failed. The Bay Area’s projected goal is to obtain a PCI of 75 by the year 2035. An approximate $7 billion has been directed to funding the maintenance of local roadways over the time period. The MTC also has reported that the Bay Area will have to double the current level of investment in maintenance of pavement.

There are several different factors that contribute to car, bus and big rig truck accidents. One of these factors is the condition of the road on which the accident occurred. Road design and maintenance is an important part of driver safety, and the government conducts reports from time to time in order to monitor road safety. On Monday, January 5, 2009, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission released a report which stated that Bay Area roads remained in fair condition, similar to their report in 2006. It also reported that the worst pavement conditions were in Sonoma and Marin counties, Suisun City and Rio Vista in Solano County, Orinda, Richmond and El Cerrito.

The best pavement conditions were in Los Altos, Brentwood, Foster City, Santa Clara, Contra Costa County, Gilroy, Dublin, Oakley and the city of Sonoma. San Mateo has increased its PCI average of six percent, which is the most improved among the different Bay Area cities. Foster City’s PCI are consistently in the 80 or higher range. Road conditions play a variety of roles in car accidents, ranging from being the cause of an accident to preventing an accident from getting any worse.

Victims injured in DUI car crashes may be entitled to damages from the driver, depending on the circumstances of their case. Although the drunk driver may be charged criminally for a DUI, they may still be liable to the victim and his/her families for injuries and death. New Year’s Eve is a notorious night for drunk drivers and deaths on the road. The California Highway Patrol made 84 DUI arrests throughout the Bay Area on December 31, 2008 and January 1, 2009. Between 6 p.m. on Wednesday night to 6 a.m. on Thursday morning, CHP officers made double the arrests than they did in 2007.

An example of such drunk driving accidents is the car crash that occurred on Monday, December 29, 2008 at 2 p.m. The car crash occurred in Santa Rosa when Roseanne Starr Webb clipped another car, and then hit another car head-on. Ms. Webb and another victim, Beverly Rick, died later at the hospital. Officials have reported that Ms. Webb has four DUIs on her record, as well as a 2005 warrant for failing to serve a jail sentence for driving without a license.

Wrongful death lawsuits are claims based on negligence of the wrongdoer. In these claims, the deceased victim’s family may allege that the victim’s death was caused in whole or in part by the wrongdoer’s actions. To find out if you have a wrongful death lawsuit against someone for the death of a family member, contact one of our experienced attorneys at Greenberg & Rudman LLP for a free consultation. You can reach us at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO), or you can go to our website at www.alawpro.com to find out more about our law firm.

All across the Bay Area this holiday season, there have been numerous car and motorcycle accidents that resulted in death, or serious injury. Drivers during the holiday season should be more cautious when driving in unfamiliar or more crowded areas, and to be particularly careful when there is alcohol involved.

• There was a fatal collision in Saratoga on Highway 85 on Sunday, December 28, 2008. The crash involved approximately three vehicles and there was one fatality involved in the crash. Several others may have also sustained injuries, but officials are unclear on what caused the accident.
• Two vehicles collided in San Mateo County and sent one car over a cliff on Sunday, December 28, 2008. After the collision, one car dove off of Devil’s Slide, which is south of Pacifica on Highway 1. Five people were injured in the crash. Officials arrested one person on drunk driving charges after it was determined that alcohol was a factor in the car crash.
• On Saturday, December 27, 2008, a motorcyclist who had been involved in a crash the previous day died at the hospital. The motorcyclist was 53 year old Bobby Walker, who was riding his Harley Davidson on Highway 80 near American Canyon Road. California Highway Patrol has reported that Mr. Walker had approached stopped traffic at a speed of 65 miles per hour. He lost control of the bike and was ejected from his seat. Officials have also reported that alcohol may be a factor in the incident.

When there is alcohol involved in an accident, there may be more liability for the drunk driver than criminal charges. By driving drunk, those drivers are acting negligently and may be held responsible in civil court for damages to the victim. If you have been injured in a drunk driving accident, call our attorneys now for a free consultation about your rights.

Vallejo, California, is the largest city in Solano County, with a population of 116,898 people. Located across the bay from San Francisco, and north of San Jose, California, Vallejo was twice the site of the California state capitol. Vallejo was also the home to Mare Island Shipyard, which was the West Coast’s first shipyard. It has become a commuter hub for the North Bay with its Ferry Terminal and ferry service to San Francisco. The city also attracts adults and children alike with the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom (formerly Marine World).

Its prime location across the San Francisco Bay and many restaurants, colleges and theme park attracts tourists and commuters. Since it is such a high traffic area, there may be an increased chance of accidents on the road, on the ferry, or at the theme park. On December 25, 2008, 48 year old Vallejo resident Dana Burket was struck and killed by a car on the corner of Springs Road and Oakwood Avenue. Officials report that the driver of the car, Scott Abeyta, was turning onto Springs Road and failed to see the woman. Ms. Burket was the third victim of a fatal motor vehicle-pedestrian crash in Vallejo this year.

The increase of traffic and visitors in the Bay Area pose dangers by way of additional cars, trucks and bikes on the roadways. In the early hours of Wednesday, December 17, 2008, a pedestrian was hit and killed on Interstate 880 in Hayward. The accident occurred near the off ramp to eastbound Highway 92. The victim was 28 year old Michael Vasquez, who was walking on the center divide. He stepped off of the center divide and was hit by a Honda driving at about 55 miles per hour. Authorities interviewed the driver of the Honda and determined that he was not at fault for the accident.

Drivers and pedestrians alike should use extra caution on the roadways. The holiday season serves as a distraction to those who are driving through busy mall parking lots, and increase the stress of many drivers. If you think that you have been wrongfully injured, or your insurance company has failed to compensate you for your injuries, please call Greenberg & Rudman LLP at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) to obtain a free consultation.

Napa, the county seat of Napa County, has a population of 72,585 people. It is located north of San Francisco, and west of Berkeley and Oakland. Napa has wet winters and warm, dry summers, which may be the key to the success of its wine industry. Napa has several hotels, resorts, world renowned restaurants and chefs, and wineries that cater to visitors from across the world. The area also attracts residents and tourists alike for its beautiful scenery, golf courses and nightlife. With Napa’s famous wines and wine tours, it may be easy for people to get caught up in the fun and become less vigilant about making sure that they have a designated driver.

Drinking and driving is a major problem in the Bay Area, and across the United States. If you or a loved one have been injured in a drinking and driving accident, and are having a tough time getting your insurance company to compensate you, or want to know your rights in a civil lawsuit against the drunk driver, please call Greenberg & Rudman LLP at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) now.

Car crashes resulting in serious injury or death may sometimes be ruled as an “accident” by police and those wrongdoers may escape criminal liability (though often not civil liability); but when those wrongdoers flee the scene of the crash, they will likely face more trouble than if they had just remained at the scene. Gerardo Yambao was killed last week in San Francisco near Lake Merced Boulevard by a hit and run driver. On Wednesday, December 11, 2008, police arrested 32 year old Roger Tsang of San Francisco on suspicion of hit and run. He is being held on suspicion of felony hit and run and vehicular manslaughter.

Another man in Fremont was killed after being hit by a vehicle in Fremont at the intersection of Central Avenue and Southwest Street. The victim was a 73 year old Fremont resident, who was trying to cross the street in his wheelchair around 8:15 p.m. on Friday, December 12, 2008. The driver of the car was not injured in the collision, but the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Accidents like this are unfortunate for both the driver and the victim, but the victim can seek compensation for their (and their family’s) losses. Families of those killed in such accidents may be able to recover for wrongful death lawsuits while those who have been injured can sue for negligence. Greenberg & Rudman LLP will advance all costs for your case and we will not charge you a penny unless we win your case for you.

California Highway Patrol issued their Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) report for 2006 which included statistics for car accidents involving alcohol. During 2006, there were:

• 1,420 fatal collisions involving alcohol, and 20,912 injury collisions.


• 1,597 people were killed in such collisions and 31,099 people were injured.


• 48.2% of the parties who were killed or injured in alcohol related accidents were determined to have been drinking.


• 51.8% of the drivers or passengers who were killed were not drinking.


• The majority of movements preceding the collision were when the vehicle was proceeding straight, followed by when the vehicle ran off the road, and when making a left turn.


• The majority of drivers in fatal collisions who were under the influence were in the age range of 21 to 24 years old.


• Those drivers under the influence who were injured in alcohol related collisions were also primarily in the 21 to 24 year age range.


• Most of the accidents occurred on Saturdays and Sundays between 2:00 and 3:00 a.m.

Sadly, an example of the fatality of drunk driving occurred this past week. A man driving his Toyota Highlander the wrong way on Interstate 280 collided with an Acura on Thursday morning, December 11, 2008. The driver of the Toyota only suffered minor cuts and injuries to his head and arm while a passenger in the Acura died at the scene. CHP officials determined that the Toyota driver was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident.

The joy of the holidays may loosen people up, and make them less aware of the dangers of driving on the road while intoxicated. Holidays, such as New Year’s Eve, and other such festivities bring about such fatalities and injuries as noted above. If you or a family member has been injured by a drunk driver, you may be able to recover monetary damages if there is negligence of recklessness involved. Those drunk drivers may be charged criminally, but also may be liable civilly. To find out if you have a lawsuit, call Greenberg & Rudman LLP now at 1-800-252-9776 (1-800-ALAWPRO) and learn about your rights.

An Oakland resident died in a car crash on Highway 880 on Friday, December 12, 2008 at around 3:30 a.m. The victim was Vu Phan, who was driving a Honda traveling southbound on I-880 near Hayward. Mr. Phan initially rear ended a big rig and was disabled as a result of that accident; the headlights on his car were also blacked out. Very soon after, a UPS truck failed to see the disabled Honda and struck it. After both trucks pulled off to the shoulder, a passerby spotted Mr. Phan’s body on the highway. Officials stated that it was unclear whether Mr. Phan was ejected from the vehicle, or if he had already been standing outside of the vehicle when he was struck.

Motorcycle accidents and deaths are on the rise all over California. Even so, more people, especially men, are buying bikes and riding them in dangerous circumstances – at high speeds or with insufficient experience. Rural roads and urban highways are equally hazardous. Motorcyclists' helmets provide head protection, but in the case of a severe crash or injury to the lower part of the body, bikers remain vulnerable. Whether a motorcycle crashes into a car, truck, freeway railing or other object, accidents can be deadly. Common motorcycle crash injuries include lacerations, brain and spinal injuries, broken arms and legs, paralysis and burn injuries. To learn more about bike-related accidents, see our website at www.alawpro.com.

Northern California has always been at the forefront of environmental awareness. More than ever, conscientious Bay Area citizens are leaving their cars at home and opting to ride their bicycles and walk. What's greenest in this case; however, may not always be safest. Northern California bicycle accidents are on the rise due in large part to the sheer number of bikers leaving their automobiles in the garage. Bicycle crashes can have devastating results, even when cyclists are wearing helmets. Besides death, bike riders run the risk of suffering broken bones, lacerations, spinal injuries or paralysis. A bicyclist is not match for a moving vehicle such as a car, truck, train or bus. If you have been hurt in a Contra Costa bicycle accident, then call 1-800-ALAWPRO now for a free consultation with a lawyer.

A Contra Costa cyclist died in a hit-and-run near Martinez, CA in late November. Traveling by bike near Highway 4 in the early evening, the man was struck by a car and left for dead. A fireman who was off-duty found the victim after the crash, but sadly, the bicyclist died at the scene. The bicyclist was riding near the shoulder of the road when he was hit, but even bike lanes cannot provide protection from accidents. Some riders even claim that bicycle lanes pose even more hazards to bike riders, as car often do not follow the laws set for bike lane travel.

In this latest crash, the pedestrian was hit by a Cal train while crossing railroad tracks in Mountain View. He later died. 13 people have died this year in Caltrain crashes. If you or a loved one has been involved an accident with Caltrans, please contact a lawyer for free at 1-800-ALAWPRO or visit us online at www.alawpro.com.

The three recent Caltrain collisions have all occurred in San Mateo County. Authorities stated that the Mountain View victim who died most recently was crossing the tracks in a marked “no trespassing” zone. He was in critical condition at a local hospital before he died. The train, a No. 101, was headed north near Highway 85. In another train crash this week, a woman was struck in her car at a crossing that had a stop sign but lacked alert gates, bells or lights. Authorities are urging citizens to be careful at all local railroads.

A woman driving a Toyota Camry sustained severe head injuries after getting hit by a Caltrain in San Jose. The victim was driving across train tracks south of Blossom Hill station. The place where she crossed is a “private passage,” with a crosswalk and stop sign, but no warning gates, bells or lights as most active crossings have. The train that struck her was traveling north from Gilroy. No train passengers were injured. Have you or someone close to you been involved in a Cal Train accident in San Jose? Then please call 1-800-ALAWPRO now to speak with a lawyer at no cost.

As Peninsula drivers know, most Caltrain track crossings possess a warning system including lights, bells and a gate to keep traffic from crossing when trains are coming on the track. The woman remains in critical condition at Regional Medical Center in San Jose. The accident occurred at 6:50am. The train was going 65-70 mph, typical for Caltrains in that area. The train involved in the crash and all others traveling the route were cancelled.

The San Francisco Bay Area's most famous landmark is a bridge, the Golden Gate. But local residents know that the Golden Gate Bridge is only one of many bridges needed to get around in Northern California. The Bay Area boasts 7 bridges used in packed daily commutes around town: the Golden Gate Bridge, San-Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge (aka The Bay Bridge), Dumbarton Bridge, Carquinez Bridge, Benicia-Martinez Bridge, San Mateo Hayward Bridge, and Richmond San Rafael Bridge. Traffic, construction, poor driving, weather, and multiple exits are all factor that can contribute to bridge-related crashes. With NoCal's high number of bridges and enormous number of commuters, bridge accidents are a weekly and sometimes daily occurrence. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in a Bay Area bridge accident, please call 1-800-ALAWPRO to speak with an attorney at no cost, or visit our main website at www.alawpro.com for more information.

The Bay Area's bridges are a crucial piece of its transportation network. No Cal bridges are in constant use by cars, trucks, motorcycles, buses, bicycles and pedestrians.

In two separate SF incidents, families of men who were killed sued the city for wrongful death. San Fran's Board of Supervisors approved compensation to the families totaling over $1.8 million. The financial settlements are awaiting final approval from the Mayor. While the city of SF admits no liability in either case, $1,695,000 was awarded to the family of a man who died in a taxi cab accident after being treated at SF General, and $150,000 was awarded to the estate of a man who died during a botched fire rescue attempt. To learn more about wrongful death, please see our webpage. If you believe someone close to you has been the victim of a wrongful death in the Bay Area, please call 1-800-ALAWPRO to speak with an attorney for free or visit our website at www.alawpro.com.

In the larger settlement, a Michigan man died a month after he was in a taxi crash in 2006. The lawsuit filed by the victim's family claimed that the man received “misdiagnosis and improper care” from San Francisco General Hospital. He died a month after the accident. The other settled case was filed on behalf of a man who died when he fell from a 4-story Nob Hill apartment building during a fire. The victim fell to his death as a fire fighter was trying to pull him to safety from a rooftop fire escape ledge. His family's lawsuit alleged that the firefighter attempting the rescue behaved inappropriately by acting recklessly, disregarding command structure and ignoring safety protocol. Cases of wrongful death can include medical and/or safety and rescue professional mistakes (as in the above instances), vehicular accidents, work-related incidents, and criminal attacks.

If you think you know the victim of a wrongful death in California, you should seek the help of an experienced Law Team. The Law Firm of Greenberg & Rudman LLP has more than 50 years combined legal experience in representing the rights of the wrongfully injured and killed.

Livermore is located in Alameda County and is the city furthest east in the Bay Area. Over 80,000 people call Livermore home.

Berkeley, CA, home to Northern California's famed University of California campus of the same name, now has over 100,000 residents. Lying on an east shore of the SF Bay, Berkeley is included in Alameda County. Due to the wonderful weather, green lifestyle and University climate, many Berkeley-ites prefer bicycles to cars. The resulting bicycle routes also create an ideal atmosphere for pedestrians. Unfortunately, accidents involving bikers and walkers can be a sad a deadly outcome when automobiles are involved.

To accommodate its legions of walkers and cyclists, Berkeley has a number of routes and roads specifically designed for them.

Alameda, a small island on the east side of the San Francisco Bay, is home to approximately 75,000 residents. Getting in and out of Alameda requires ferry, bridge or tunnel access for cars, motorcycles, pedestrians, bicycles, and all other vehicles. I-880 makes Alameda quite accessible as well with an exit a few short minutes from town. With a speed limit of 25 mph, Alameda would seem like an idyllic spot for those on foot; however, non-locals exiting the 880 into Alameda don't always obey or know about the decreased speed. If cars, buses and trucks don't slow down, the results can be dangerous and deadly for Alameda pedestrians. Have you or a loved one been injured in an Alameda accident? Then please call 1-800-ALAWPRO to speak with an attorney at no cost.

Alameda can be accessed by the U.S.’s only pedestrian and bicyclist drawbridge, as well as motor vehicle bridges at Park, High and Fruitvale Ave., tunnels at Harrison (the Posey Tube) and Webster. Public transit for Alameda residents includes two ferry services, Harbor Bay and Alameda-Oakland, as well as bus service provided by AC (Alameda County) Transit. But walkers and bikers beware! Advocate groups have had to take on the cause of protecting non-vehicular road users. Drivers exiting into Alameda from 880 can injure pedestrians. Accidents involving pedestrians are often fatal and injuries can include broken limbs, head and neck injuries, as well as severe lacerations.

If you have been hurt in a crash in Alameda, then please get help from the Law Firm of Greenberg & Rudman LLP now. Learn more about your rights by visiting www.alawpro.com.

Fremont, home to over 210,000 people, is in the Southeast region of the Bay Area in Alameda County. Fremont has two major interstates serving its residents, Highways 880 and 680. Fremont is also the terminus of the Dumbarton Bridge. Additionally numerous public transit systems service the Fremont area including BART. Due to Fremont's many transportation options, road accidents and injuries abound. Whether you have been hurt crossing the Dumbarton Bridge or been in a crash involving an AC transit bus, you may be entitled to compensation for your suffering.

Fremont contains the neighborhoods Niles, Mission San Jose, Irvington, Warm Springs and Centerville, which were formally cities in and of themselves. Now residents of all these communities can reap the benefits and sometimes downsides of living in the growing city. Train transportation in the greater Fremont area includes services from BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) and ACE (Altamont Commuter Express). Buses are from AC Transit and Santa Clara Valley VTA (Valley Transportation Authority) lines. Besides I-680 (Sinclair Freeway) and I-880 (Nimitz Freeway), major Fremont roads include Mission Boulevard and State Route 84. Traffic in the Fremont areas of the California interstates and on the Dumbarton Bridge is frequently heavy, and the results can be a higher number of crashes and injuries.

The most recent SF Collision report, compiled by the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency from CHP statistics, shows a disturbingly high rise in traffic-related injuries and deaths. In 2007 pedestrian accidents were up more than 50%, composing more than half of all traffic deaths. Bicycle-related crashes rose over 30%. Vehicle-related deaths are also up over 50%, while injuries from accidents involving motor vehicles are also on the rise. Injuries incurred in road accidents can include brain and spinal injuries, broken limbs, burn injuries, paralysis and laceration. The report also showed that certain SF intersections are particularly dangerous for walkers. Additionally, as previously blogged, Muni buses are posing a growing threat to SF residents with two deaths already this year. To learn more about car, motorcycle, bus, bike and pedestrian accidents, please visit our website www.alawpro.com. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a SF road accident, please call 1-800-ALAWPRO to speak with a lawyer for free.

With the spike in road injuries and deaths, some city officials point to the increasing number of people choosing alternatives to car travel. Nevertheless the high number of injuries and deaths is alarming for anyone using San Francisco streets. Here are some more 2007 statistics from the report:

# of Non-fatal Pedestrian injuries: 800
# of Non-fatal Bicycling injuries: 450
# of Pedestrian deaths: 32
# of Pedestrian deaths involving Muni buses or streetcars: 8

What else may be to blame for the grim stats? Poor road design and maintenance including a lack of bike lanes, hidden traffic signs, or poorly visible crosswalks may be a factor. Drivers may also be responsible, especially those who disobey the law by speeding, running red lights and stop signs; or those drivers who are not paying enough attention on the road, distracted by cell phones or other things. There is no doubt that both SF pedestrians and drivers need to be cautious and take care on the road. Following are some of the San Francisco intersections cited as being repeatedly dangerous for walkers, bikers and drivers:

Gough & Market
Market & 6th
Oak St. & Octavia Blvd.
Bayshore Blvd. & Silver Ave.
Mission St. & Silver Ave.
19th Ave. & Junipero Serra Blvd.
19th Ave. & Sloat Blvd.
13th St. & South Van Ness

A special report by Channel 2 (KTVU) looked into a frightening Bay Area menace: extremely dangerous driving behavior on the Bay Bridge. The Bridge connects San Francisco to the East Bay, and as discussed in an earlier blog, Bay Area Bridges pose a number of hazardous factors to drivers. In their report, the news channel brings up yet another danger: drunk drivers racing and swerving across the San Francisco – Oakland Bay Bridge on the weekends, often while under the influence. Accidents involving high speed impact can have devastating results including brain and spinal cord injuries, paralysis, burn-related injuries, broken arms or legs, and death. Have you or a loved one been involved in an accident on the Bay Bridge? Please call 1-800-ALAWPRO to speak with a lawyer at no cost.

According to the CHP, since Jan 2007 nearly 365 people have been arrested for DUI's on the Bridge in early morning hours – from 1am to 6am, and most of these occur on Friday and Saturday mornings. In August a passenger in the back seat of a Mercedes was killed when a Subaru Impreza going over 100 mph smashed into him. The speed limit on the bridge is 50 mph; however, KTVU's investigation spotted many cars traveling at over 80 mph, some more than 90 mph. The driving which threatens law abiding bridge users is reckless, with dangerously high speeds, lack of signaling during lane changes, abrupt lane changes, and frequently influenced by drugs and/or alcohol.

Been hurt by a driver on the Bay Bridge, then please get help from an experienced California Law Firm. At the Law Offices of Greenberg & Rudman LLP we have over 50 years legal experience in representing the rights of people like you.

In startling new information released by the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, pedestrian and other accidents involving Muni streetcars, cable cars, and buses are increasing dramatically. As a result, Muni is searching for safety consultants, which may be too little too late for those already devastated by loss from Muni accidents. With over 300 claims just this year, Muni has paid out millions this year to crash victims, passengers and employees. . Have you or a loved one been involved in an SF Muni bus or street car accident? Then you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. Please call a San Francisco attorney for help at 1-800-ALAWPRO now. To learn more about public transportation and motor vehicle accidents as well as workplace injuries, go to www.alawpro.com.

The new information from SF’s Transit agency is shocking. Pedestrian accidents have nearly doubled in the past year, while bike, car, bus, and passenger crashes are also on the rise. In addition, Muni employees are also being hurt on the job at a higher rate. In the past 3 years, 18 deaths have resulted from Muni crashes, including two deaths this year, by cable car (see our blog about a fatal cable car accident this past month) and street car. Also, bicycle and passenger accidents have seen a sharp increase. Municipal authorities concede that a culture of Muni driver aggressiveness and carelessness may be a contributing factor to the high number of accidents.

Other than needless injuries and fatalities, an additional outcome from the Muni incidents has been the large number of claims and settlements to victims of Muni-related accidents. Over $4.8 million was paid out to Muni crash and passenger victims last year alone. There were more than 300 accident-related and work compensation claims filed in 2007. Worker injury has also led to large payments, more than $17 million. This is all the more reason to get legal help immediately if you have been involved in an SF bus or streetcar accident on the street or on the job.

The new statistics from the SFMTA cite injuries and deaths resulting from (1) crashes involving pedestrians, bicycles, other vehicles (cars, vans, trucks, other Muni buses) and animals; and (2) passenger boarding and on board Muni vehicles). Here is the list of the number of Muni incidents since 2005 from the San Francisco Examiner:

Muni & Pedestrian accidents:
2005-6: 43
2006-7: 55
2007-8: 79

Muni vs. Bicycle crashes:
2005-6: 18
2006-7: 21
2007-8: 25

Muni & Auto/Van/Truck collisions:
2005-6: 1,326
2006-7: 1,229
2007-8: 1,372

Drunk driving is suspected in a multi-vehicle accident that occurred mid-day on Interstate 680 in Danville leaving three people injured. The crash included two cars, a flat bed truck and a tow truck. A Subaru Forester and the tow truck were pulled over to the side of the highway when they were struck by a two-axel flatbed truck. The tow truck driver was critically injured during the crash, as he was pulled under his truck by the force of the collision. The flatbed driver, who was arrested for drunk driving, also received serious injuries. Have you or a loved one been involved in a California freeway accident? Then call 1-800-ALAWPRO for your free interview with a lawyer now.

The accident occurred on southbound Highway 680 and resulted in the brief closing of the entire freeway. In addition to the two truck drivers who were hurt, a third victim, driving an Acura was also hospitalized with minor injuries. Luckily, the Subaru driver was not in his car and was able to avoid injury. When the flatbed hit the vehicles on the roadside, he “peeled away” the side of the car before smashing into the truck. Trucking accidents on California highways are dangerous and common. Severe injuries and death can often be the result. If you have been involved in a truck-related crash in CA, please get help from a lawyer.

A year ago an infamous multi-car crash happened on Highway 99 outside Fresno. Approximately 90 vehicles, cars and trucks, collided due to dense fog. Northern Californians are no strangers to foggy streets and freeways, and seasonal fog can be the catalyst for crashes on many local roads. Now CHP and the California Dept. of Transportation are installing a new fog warning system to inform drivers of fog in the area of the gargantuan pile-up. Previously roads known to be fog-prone lacked such safety measures. Have you or a loved on been involved in a Fresno car or truck accident? Then please call us at 1-800-ALAWPRO now for a free consultation with a lawyer.

The new alert system includes signs and sensors. Freeway message signs will reflect fog updates according to information received from fog sensors. Low visibility and poor driving conditions due to fog can create dangerous road scenarios. Additionally roads with high speeds, heavy traffic and no warning system for weather can lead to deadly crashes. Cars, buses and trucks are a risk on these roads. If you have been in a freeway accident, it's not always clear who is to blame, and that is why you need the help of an experienced Law Team.

A pick-up truck parked on railroad tracks was struck by a northbound Caltrain in San Mateo, CA, near the intersection of Ninth and South Railroad Avenues. According to official reports, the railroad crossing arms were down at the crossing and the police are still investigating why the pick-up truck drove around the crossing arms and onto the tracks. The fifty-year old driver of the pick-up truck was pronounced dead at the scene. No one on Caltrain was injured, but the accident delayed train service for several hours. Train accidents may be caused by a variety of factors, ranging from conductor error to track and equipment failure. These types of accidents may cause fatal injuries, burns, spinal and brain injuries, and paralysis.

The accident occurred at 5:30 a.m. on Thursday, October 30, 2008 as the Caltrain approached northbound in San Mateo. The pick-up was straddled across the northbound tracks and was dragged by the train for nearly 200 yards. The Caltrain commute was delayed, as investigators tried to determine why the pick-up truck was parked on the railroad tracks. Caltrains approaching the San Mateo area were instructed to return to San Francisco and San Jose.

While connecting to Highway 87 from I-280, a man in a Chevy pick-up truck crashed into another car. The collision threw the 27-year-old victim from his car, and he died at the scene. Merging onto a highway from a connector or onramp is one of the most dangerous and frightening parts of Northern California driving. While Bay Area freeways are nearly a must for getting around, they can be extremely hazardous for a variety of reasons. If you have been injured in a freeway-related accident, please visit our website at www.alawpro.com or call us at 1-800-ALAWPRO to receive a free consultation with an attorney.

The victim, a San Jose man, was driving southbound on 280 attempting to merge onto southbound 87. He was headed for the left lane on the connector ramp when the accident occurred, ejecting him from the pickup truck. Authorities stated that alcohol was a likely factor. While drunk driving is a constant road danger, NoCal freeways possess many other hazards including high speeds, multiple connectors, onramps and off ramps, heavy traffic, and large vehicles such as tractor trailers and buses.

An oil tanker truck traveling southbound on Northern California’s Interstate 880 near Oakland was struck by a car, which caused the 8,600 gallons of gas cargo to explode and burn. Fortunately, no one was hurt in the accident. However, the busy Bay Area freeway was shut down for nearly thirteen hours. Due to their size and weight, big rig trucking accidents significantly contribute to the number of motor vehicle accidents. Also significant in big rig truck accidents is the cargo that they are transporting. Liability of accidents may extend to the driver, the employer of the driver, the owner of the tractor, the owner of the trailer, the owner of the container being transported, and the owner of the cargo. Possible results of these types of accidents range from fatal deaths, to brain and spinal injuries to severe burns.

The accident happened at 6:15 a.m. on October 22, 2008 on the southbound stretch of Interstate 880 near Fifth Avenue in Oakland. A sedan, in an attempt to change lanes, crashed into the median, and ricocheted into the oil tanker. The explosion and fire only damaged the surface of the interstate, and the structural integrity of the highway was not threatened, the California Department of Transportation reported after its inspection.
