Inattentive driver kills school boy in car accident tragedy
In this case the boy, Cameron Dumore, was walking to school in Lithonia, GA. He was crossing the street within a crosswalk. A crossing guard was present, waving a handheld stop sign and alerting vehicles to stop. And they were, of course, in a school zone. No matter. Despite all these things, an SUV driven by a 40-year-old woman disregarded the cross walk, the school zone, the crossing guard, the handheld stop sign and every other indicator to stop — including the boy himself — and, without slowing down, struck the boy and killed him. |

A car accident lawyer takes over after safe driving isn’t enough
Innocent people die each day on America’s streets and highways. Many may have been safe, cautious drivers with a good record. But when other drivers on the road are rampaging — by speeding, drinking and driving recklessly — even safe drivers are in danger, including a woman in Detroit this week. She was minding her own business, riding in a car, when another vehicle, which was involved in a street race, slammed into her Saturn Ion. The blameless woman died soon after at a hospital. |

Again, an innocent human being — this time a 7-year-old boy — has died — lost a lifetime — due to momentary driver distractions or inattentiveness.
“Crash!” It’s a sudden sound for a sudden event — and often a tragic one, especially when it comes in a car accident.
