Motorcycle riders know that they have to be extra careful out on the road. In addition to obeying all traffic laws, they must be wary of other drivers who may not see them or improperly judge their speed. But all of the caution in the world probably won’t help if a motorcyclist encounters a stop sign runner.
That’s what happened in North Las Vegas yesterday afternoon, and it claimed the life of a 40-year old motorcyclist. The man was riding his motorcycle north on Martin Luther King Boulevard about a mile east of North Las Vegas airport about 3:15pm. Police say that a sport utility vehicle ran a stop sign at Reverend Wilson Avenue, cutting off the motorcyclist in the process. The victim was pronounced dead at the accident site.
The SUV driver fled the scene and remains at large. Authorities describe him as a short-haired Hispanic or black man in his 20s or 30s with light skin. The vehicle is thought to be a red Mitsubishi which was dirty.
The family members of the fatal motorcycle accident victim seem to have rock-solid grounds for a wrongful death lawsuit against the driver of the SUV. But obviously, that individual will have to be apprehended and identified before any such legal action can proceed.
If you are a motorcyclist who has been injured by a red light runner, or if your loved one was killed in a similar situation, you should contact a qualified motorcycle accident lawyer as soon as possible.
