Salinas, CA (October 16, 2024) – A tragic crash killed 19-year-old Alexander Perea from Greenfield.
Accident Details: The accident occurred on Highway 101 Northbound, south of Thorne Road in Salinas. Perea was killed in a solo vehicle crash. Further details have yet to be released.
Legal Considerations: As a personal injury attorney, I find that several factors could potentially be explored in determining liability. Investigators will look into mechanical failure, road conditions, or other contributing factors that may have led to the crash. If negligence is found, Perea’s family may be able to file a wrongful death claim.
Additionally, if it is determined that Perea’s speed was excessive or was under the influence of substances, this could complicate matters regarding comparative negligence. However, if another party, such as a vehicle manufacturer or road maintenance authority, is found to be negligent, Perea’s family may still recover partial compensation.
The loss of Alexander Perea has undoubtedly left a profound impact on his family and friends. Our thoughts are with them during this challenging time.
