A car accident lawyer would prove useful after a motorist turned up dead following a multi-vehicle collision in San Bernardino, California. The San Bernardino County Coroner’s Department on Tuesday, June 2, identified the fatal victim as Joseph Mendivil, a 37-year-old San Bernardino local.

The San Bernardino Police Department responded to the crash on Monday morning, June 1, after callers reported a fiery accident involving several vehicles. It happened at about 2:15 a.m., near the intersection of Lynwood Drive and Mountain Avenue, police said.

The circumstances leading to the crash, and the number of vehicles involved is unclear at this time. However, one of the motorists involved in the traffic wreck suffered fatal injuries as a result. Emergency responders pronounced Joseph Mendivil deceased at the scene. No additional detail about the crash is available at this time.

The San Bernardino Police Department is investigating to determine the cause and liability of the traffic collision.

Possible causes include mechanical faults, distracted driving, unforeseen hazards on the roadway, and intoxication by drugs or alcohol. Impatience is also a known cause of traffic collisions, especially around road intersections, when motorists try to cross on a red light.

Sadly, these factors cause serious injuries leading to incapacitation or death of the victim. The traffic offenders are also not left out, as they often end up dead in the encounter. Therefore, it is crucial to try to establish the liability of a collision during the investigation, and the involved parties should ensure they consult a car accident lawyer during the process.
