Slippery icy road in Walpole potential cause of serious injuries

On behalf of posted in car accidents on Monday December 3, 2012

Winter weather brings the potential for snow, sleet, freezing rain and other hazardous road conditions. Those of us in Massachusetts who drive in bad weather are accustomed to navigating a tailspin, although it always takes us one or two snowstorms before our snow driving skills return. Four people were seriously injured on Interstate 95 near Walpole. The cause of the car accident is being investigated by Troop H of the state police, the Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Section and the State Police Crime Scene Service Section. It appears that a slippery snowy road may have been a factor. The other thing that…

Boston Road scene of pedestrian accident with injuries

On behalf of posted in Pedestrian Accidents on Wednesday October 17, 2012

A Google map gives us a bird's eye view of the intersection of Boston Road and Colden Avenue. It is a mixed use neighborhood with single-family homes, low-rise apartment buildings, retail shops and a few small industrial buildings. Boston Road cuts across Colden Avenue at an angle, but there are clearly marked crosswalks and traffic lights. Given those facts, what could be the cause of pedestrian accident? According to news sources, a 12-year-old girl was in a crosswalk when she was struck by a car and seriously injured. The accident reportedly took place at 7:00 in the morning, which would…

Motorcycle and SUV collide in Natick, biker seriously injured

On behalf of posted in Motorcycle Accidents on Wednesday October 10, 2012

There is a bumper sticker you may have seen on cars around Suffolk County. It reads: "Start Seeing Motorcycles." The problem with riding a motorcycle, as any biker will tell you, is not the bike -- it is the cars and trucks. The wisdom of that warning was brought home recently when a motorcycle and BMW SUV collided in an intersection. As is typical with most motorcycle accidents, the biker was seriously injured and the driver and passenger in the SUV were not. The SUV and motorcycle crash took place during rush hour in Natick. The crash took place in…

Box truck injures biker in Middleton

On behalf of posted in Commercial Vehicle Accidents on Monday September 24, 2012

When a motorcycle or truck accident occurs in Boston or anywhere and someone is injured, it may be only the injured person who knows what happened to cause the accident. If the injured person is unconscious, it may be left up to an accident reconstruction team to try and figure out what happened in a motor vehicle accident. Recently a motorcyclist and a box truck were involved in a collision in Middleton. The biker suffered serious injuries in the bike and truck accident, and thus may be unable to describe the events at this time. An accident reconstruction team was called…

Pedestrian injured in Peabody’s Peabody Square

On behalf of posted in Pedestrian Accidents on Tuesday September 18, 2012

There is more than one Peabody Square in Massachusetts. The one in front of the Essex County District Court building in Peabody isn't really much of a square, according to the bird's eye view from Google maps. It is more precisely a triangle. One of the sides of Peabody Square in Peabody is bordered by Lowell Street. It was reported that a pedestrian was attempting to cross Lowell Street from the direction of Chestnut Street when she was struck by a Ford Explorer pickup truck. She reportedly had serious personal injuries and was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. The accident…

Bicyclist seriously injured by truck in Medway

On behalf of posted in Commercial Vehicle Accidents on Friday September 14, 2012

Main Street in Medway is a tree-lined two-lane road. Google maps show that there is a sidewalk on one side of the road and there appears to be a clearly marked bike lane on either side of the road. The road is straight near the portion where it intersects with a cull-de-sac called Thunder Hill Road. It was along Main Street near Thunder Hill Road at 3:38 in the afternoon that a 20-year-old bicyclist was struck by a pickup truck which may have been a commercial vehicle. The bicycle-truck accident resulted in serious personal injuries for the biker. The news…
