Bakersfield, CA (August 22, 2024) – Michael Alvin Herman, 68, has been identified as the bicyclist who succumbed to injuries sustained in an early morning collision in Bakersfield, according to the Kern County Coroner’s Office.
Accident Details: The crash occurred on August 22, 2024, at approximately 4:20 a.m. in the 3200 block of Stockdale Highway. Herman was transported to Kern Medical for treatment but tragically passed away on September 5 due to his injuries.
Legal Considerations: As a personal injury attorney, I find that investigators will likely review factors such as driver behavior, road conditions, and potential mechanical failures. If negligence is determined to be a cause of the collision, Herman’s family may have the option to file a wrongful death claim.
I offer my deepest condolences to Michael Alvin Herman’s family and friends during this incredibly difficult time.
