Cape Cod Woman Identified as Victim Found in Burned Car After Crash Off Road
A Cape Cod woman identified as the victim of a tragic accident was discovered as human remains in a burned car on Monday, according to a statement from Cape and Islands District Attorney Robert Galibois’ office. The victim, 86-year-old Susan Lauber from Sandwich, was found inside her vehicle after it became engulfed in flames early Monday morning.
According to the District Attorney’s statement, Lauber’s car drove near Peter’s Pond in Sandwich before leaving the paved road and moving around a cottage and into a wooded area. This path ultimately led to the vehicle becoming stuck or otherwise compromised, culminating in the fire that tragically claimed her life.
Compensation at Stake for Accident Victims’ Families
When incidents like these occur, grieving families face not only emotional devastation but also potential financial burdens. In cases involving car accidents, especially those that result in fatalities, families may have the right to seek several types of compensation.
Compensation can help cover unexpected expenses, such as funeral costs, medical bills, and emotional distress. Additional damages may be sought for loss of companionship and the victim’s contribution to household support, especially if negligence or failure to maintain safe roads played a role. Understanding these types of compensation can be overwhelming during a time of loss, but families should know that support is available to help them cope with these financial challenges.
