On October 24 2008 a driver lost control of his Lamborghini Gallardo resulting in the car crashing into a tree and injuring the two occupants. The accident occurred in Fort Worth TX. on North Neach Street. Reportedly the driver of the Lamborghini was traveling at a high rate of speed when he allegedly lost control of the vehicle and crashed into a tree. Upon hitting the tree the car was split in half. One of the vehicles occupants lost a foot in the accident and both are badly injured.
A note from Dallas car accident attorney E. Michael Grossman:
I dont want to speculate on the actions of the driver although the official report does make it seem as if the driver is at fault rather I would like to focus on the passenger. When someone enters your vehicle and you are driving them around you have a duty to ensure that they are reasonably safe while in your vehicle. The passenger that was injured in this vehicle would be within his legal rights to seek compensation for his injuries from both the driver and the insurance company that holds the policy on this car.
My firm has handled many cases just like this one where the passenger of a car was badly injured. Without the help of a good lawyer often the insurance company will downplay their financial repsonsibility in these types of accidents and the innocent passenger will end up getting stuck with major medical expenses because the insurance company will deny coverage on a technicality. I hope that the passenger in this accident calls an attorney before it is too late.
I hope both the driver and the passenger make a speedy recovery.
