Auto Accident Claims Life of Woman

|

A woman lost her life in an auto accident on Wednesday morning. The accident happened in Santaquin, Utah at approximately 6:50 a.m. According to the Santaquin Police Department, 22-year-old Bekah Eva was operating a Chevrolet pickup truck northbound on South Ridge Farms Road when she lost control of the vehicle. Eva failed to negotiate a curve, lost control of the truck veering off the roadway, and overturned the vehicle several times. She was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident, and authorities are attempting to determine a cause. Police have not released information regarding if they believe drugs or alcohol were a factor.

Auto accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the United States, and unfortunately, most of these accidents are preventable. Dangerous roadways, negligent and reckless driving, mechanical defects, and vehicle design flaws are the most common causes of auto accidents. Individuals injured in car accidents will likely incur damages in the form of physical damages, property damages, and financial damages. The people affected may have grounds to file an auto accident case to attempt to collect compensation for their damages.
