The accident happened at around 3:06 p.m. when 65-year-old Wanda Daley was operating a silver 2008 Mercedes SUV along Route 15 in Lafayette. Daley’s vehicle veered off the roadway, struck a guardrail, and collided with a tree near Beaver Run Road.

The statistics regarding auto accidents can be alarming. Every year there are thousands of auto accidents that seriously injure and kill individuals. While there are reports regarding auto accidents each day in the media, most drivers have become complacent assuming they won’t be involved in a crash. Unfortunately, statistics prove that a driver will be involved in more than one accident during their lifetime. Vehicle design flaws, reckless driving, mechanical defects, and dangerous roadways are common causes in motor vehicle accidents, and victims may have grounds to file an auto accident case.
