Tracy, CA (May 24, 2021) – An Oakland man died after a crash occurred in the Tracy area over the weekend, police say.
Officers say that the incident occurred before 1:00 a.m. on Sunday morning, May 23. At that time, three vehicles collided near the intersection of 11th Street and Lammers Road.
Officers began life-saving efforts on one seriously injured driver, identified only as a 29-year-old Oakland man, but he was pronounced dead at the scene by medics. Occupants from the other two vehicles involved were taken to the hospital after sustaining serious but not-life-threatening injuries.
The investigation is ongoing, and further details on the events leading up to the wreck have not been released.
We would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim. Our thoughts are with the injured victims in hopes of a full recovery.
California authorities reported 35,000 traffic accidents that resulted in fatalities, major injuries, or minor injuries on Bay Area roadways. Over the last several years, thousands of lives have been lost on California's highways, major thoroughfares connecting large city centers, local streets, and beyond. Though motor vehicle fatality rates have decreased from the rates recorded in the 1970s and 1980s, increased traffic and booming population growth have contributed to a greater ratio of serious injuries when compared to the total number of collisions.
On the whole, serious car wrecks causing injuries or death are an unfortunately common part of life in California. When multiple victims are injured in an accident, they may have to deal with other drivers' insurance companies, long-term physical pain, and expensive hospital bills. Occasionally, as a result of these incidents, victims succumb to their injuries, leaving their grieving families to cope with emotional trauma and financial difficulties as a result of another driver's negligence.
But the victims and their families affected by these wrecks can seek help from a California injury attorney. A skilled attorney in California can help victims seek justice and the fair compensation they deserve after suffering in an accident that occurred through no fault of their own.
