I have been practicing injury law in Springfield, Missouri for the last 35 years. In this time I have dedicated my practice solely to injury law. I believe in fighting for the legal rights of injury victims and their families. To me, this is the ability to help these families receive the full compensation they deserve for their injuries, not just whatever the insurance company wants to pay.
For the rest of us, let me summarize it this way: slow down, pay attention, and always look twice before turning or changing lanes. If everyone always followed those simple rules, everywhere, every day, the miles driven can increase, and we’d decrease the number of deaths. Miles driven will go back up and continue to rise, that is a certainty. The part we can each control is our safe driving habits, so do your part and follow these rules and let’s hope you help save lives.
Investigators say the driver of the semi, Perron Sellers, 32, of Appaloosa, La., was heading eastbound on Division Street and overcorrected his semi, lost control and swerved into the westbound lanes hitting the motorcyclist. David Brown, 49, died at the scene.
Our interstates, county highways and local roads are full of trucks which are essential to carry the goods and merchandise that we and our area businesses need every day which are essential to our lifestyles, but simply due to their huge size and weight, they can cause the biggest crashes, injuries and deaths on the road of any vehicle.
Naturalized Bird, Bee and Butterfly Habitat
That’s what we’ve been working on developing here at our office for the last 3 years as a beautiful and ecological alternative to the usual sod, irrigation, fertilizer, pesticide, insecticide type of landscaping.
Despite the fact that the public has been travelling far less over the last 2 months, the rate of fatal vehicle crashes has exploded.
You’ve heard the phrase “busy as a bee” and that’s really an understatement. Those little guys and gals do nothing but work, reproduce, die, and their offspring repeat the perpetual cycle.
Riders from the Springfield Motorcycle Safety and Awareness Ride share their insights and safety tips.
Another preventable motorcycle crash where we lose a 22 year old from Springfield Missouri because the driver didn’t look twice.
Another very sad and avoidable crash causing our community and a family to lose a loved one. Never wave anyone out through stopped traffic and if someone waves you to go just politely say Thanks and wait until you can see clearly.
