New York Motor Vehicle Accident Lawyer Adnan Munawar Comments on Violent SUV Crash in Brooklyn

NEW YORK, Oct. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- According to MSN, a fatal crash took place in Texas, with four members of a community college softball team losing their lives when a truck collided with the bus they were riding in. (Police: Truck Driver Says Distracted Before Crash, September 28, 2014). The driver of the truck, who told police he was distracted by something in his cabin, reportedly veered through the median for 820 feet before crashing into the oncoming bus carrying the student athletes.

In addition to the four deaths, there were dozens of injuries reported, with at least one person listed in critical condition. The company who owns the vehicle, Quickway, expressed its condolences with regard to the death of the four young women, and stated it has been and will continue to fully cooperate with investigators. The company has had an above-average safety record and had not had any drivers involved in fatal accidents in the last two years. No charges have been brought against the driver, who was also treated for injuries.

"Above all else, our hearts go out to the friends and family of these four young women who lost their lives," said Adnan Munawar, Partner at Munawar & Andrews-Santillo LLP, "Losing someone, especially so young, is an overwhelming tragedy and we hope the community can come together to heal. Unfortunately, accidents like these are far too common, and in the blink of a second, lives can be lost and serious injuries can occur. Even when drivers are doing their sincere best, the worst can happen, and we need to not only continue as a society to try to reduce the frequency of accidents, but also to increase the awareness of what people should do when they are in one."

 "If you do not need immediate medical attention and can do so, you should always start gathering as much information as possible right way—take pictures, file police reports, and right down whatever you see. There is little more vital to a successful claim than an accurate and complete record. Even with all the available information, you often will need an expert to interpret it and to testify in your favor. You will also have many other requirements throughout the legal process, and you would be best advised to navigate them with the guidance of an expert. What many people also do not realize is just how accessible a personal injury attorney is. You can consult with one for free, and if you decide to retain an attorney to represent you in a car accident, you only ever pay a fee if you win, so it can really be a no-brainer."
