Wrongful Death
Pedestrian hit, killed by sheriff’s deputy
A sheriff’s deputy intending to pull over a suspected drunken driver hit and killed a pedestrian early Tuesday in San Marcos.
The deputy was in a parking lot of an area called “restaurant row” on West San Marcos Boulevard at Via Vera Cruz about 1:30 a.m. when he spotted a vehicle driving erratically, sheriff’s spokeswoman Jan Caldwell said.
He pulled out of the lot onto Via Vera Cruz, made a right on San Marcos Boulevard and accelerated to catch up with the car. He had gone about 100 yards and had not yet activated his emergency lights when a man “stepped right out in front of him,” Caldwell said.
The victim had crossed the eastbound lanes of the major thoroughfare in an unmarked and dark area, and was standing in the center median of the roadway when he stepped into the road. The man died at the scene.
Caldwell said there are indications he worked in the area. His name has not yet been released.
The deputy, who has been on the force about seven years, suffered a minor injury in the crash and was treated by paramedics, Caldwell said.
“He was pretty shaken,” she said.
Westbound lanes of West San Marcos were closed between Via Vera Cruz and South Las Posas Road as authorities investigated.
The suspected drunken driver was not located, Caldwell said.

The term “wrongful death” is defined as the death of an individual as a result of the negligence, carelessness, intentional act of another individual, corporation, company or entity. Filing a proper wrongful death claim is extremely difficult and complex for families because they are not only dealing with their grief over the death of a beloved family member, but also complex issues of compensation as well. Wrongful death claims are usually sought after by relatives, siblings, or members of the decedent’s estate who have lost a considerable amount of money as well as loss of support and grief due to the wrongful death of the decedent.
In most states, if the death of a relative or spouse was caused by the wrongful act of another, surviving family members can file a wrongful death lawsuit against the negligent party or parties. In order to file a wrongful death claim, you must be able to prove that you will experience severe future emotional and financial hardship because of the loss of the death of a relative, family member or spouse.
Fiery gasoline tanker collision , killed a teenage motorist from Hesperia
A fiery gasoline tanker collision hurt the trucker, killed a teenage motorist from Hesperia and closed a major street less than 11/2 miles from Victorville’s main shopping mall, San Bernardino County Fire Department and coroner’s officials said.
The blaze was reported at 12:54 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 15, shortly after the fuel tanker and a passenger car crashed at Bear Valley Road and Eleventh Avenue in Hesperia, across Interstate 15 from the Mall at Victor Valley.
“Residents stated they tried to come to the aid of the drivers, (but) had to turn back due to explosions and the extent of the fire,” Fire Department officials said in a written statement.
Nineteen-year-old Jorge Luis Salazar died at the scene.
Salazar had been driving his blue 1998 Mitsubishi south on Eleventh Avenue when he was struck by a blue 2007 Peterbilt semi-tractor, coroner’s officials said in a separate statement.
The trucker was injured but ran to safety.
His two trailers contained about 9,000 gallons of gasoline, most of which burned, forcing the evacuation of an apartment complex and causing minor damage to a home, water and smoke damage to an animal hospital and a half-acre vegetation fire, according to the Fire Department statement.
The tanker blaze was so intense that a crash truck specifically designed to fight fuel fires was summoned from nearby Southern California Logistics Airport in Victorville.
The fire, accident investigation and cleanup closed a three-block stretch of busy Bear Valley Road for nine hours until the roadway was reopened at 10 a.m. Sunday.

Boating Accident Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Liability
The most common boating accidents are collisions with other boats, sinking’s, capsizing and boat disappearances.
Boating accidents occur very quickly and in many different places. Lakes, canals, rivers, inter-coastal waterways and oceans are where tragedies normally occur. Last year in California, there were 744 boating accidents involving 439 injuries and 44 fatalities.
According to the United States Coast Guard each year there are more than 8,000 boating accidents in the U.S. that result in 4,000 serious injuries and 800 deaths.

We know the boating liability issues and will inform you of your true state, local and Federal boating rights and legal options which will result in successful outcome in your case.
It is a general rule of law that the operator of a boat and its owner has a duty to exercise a reasonable degree of care in order to prevent injuries to others. The most common boating accidents are collisions with other boats, sinking and boat disappearance. Boating injuries usually occur because of a reckless or careless operator, alcohol, boat malfunctions or an inexperienced boating (captain) operator.
Operators of boats have a legal obligation to operate their watercraft in a safe and prudent manner. The overwhelming majority of boating accidents are caused by factors that can be controlled by the operator of the boat. The primary cause of boating accidents nationwide was operator inattention, followed by careless/reckless operation, operator inexperience, operating at an unsafe speed, and failure to have a proper lookout.
Common violations of the duty of ordinary care in a maritime setting include a failure to warn against foreseeable harm, violations of “rules of the water,” such as excessive speed, failure to have proper lights, failure to yield, intoxication and others. Owners may also be held liable under the theory of vicarious liability. For example, an owner may be held liable for an operator’s failure to warn passengers of intended maneuvers, overloading the boat or permitting the guest to sit in a dangerous position.
Accidents involving bystanders, such as swimmers or water skiers, are typically treated in the same manner as cases involving social guests. The law and courts where the accident occurred will generally control any lawsuits brought by injured bystanders unless the defendant boat owner asserts admiralty jurisdiction.
The laws regarding boating accident (drowning) cases are complex and include many facets of the law.
