Utah woman dies after Hurricane car crash

Thursday to the crash at 200 W. State Street, according to a press release. A 2002 Buick Rendezvous had stopped on the north side of 200 West and then attempted to cross State Street, according to police. A 2005 Chevrolet Avalanche was traveling east on State Street, when police believe the Buick pulled out in front of the Avalanche, causing a collision. Two of his passengers '€” a man and a woman both also in their early-80s '€” were taken to a hospital in stable condition, according to police. But a third passenger, Anna L. Beatty, was taken to a local hospital and died from her injuries at about 3 a.m.
Why every fatality from a crash is not legally a wrongful death

After someone dies in a motor-vehicle accident, grieving family members and friends are often left with many questions. What caused the accident? Could it have been avoided? What do they do now that their loved one is gone?

Sometimes a fatal collision happens through no one's fault. Crashes caused by weather and road conditions, or by wildlife in the roadway, are examples. But when a fatal crash is caused by negligence, then family members should pursue a wrongful death claim, to uphold the victim's rights and begin the financial recovery process.
