What the Law Says

California’s basic speed law, Vehicle Code 22350, says no one may drive faster than is reasonable for the conditions, including traffic, visibility and road layout, regardless of the posted limit. When a crash involves a vehicle already stopped or overturned on a freeway at night, how fast approaching drivers were going and how closely they were watching the road can become important questions. Investigators have not said whether speed played a role here.

California Code of Civil Procedure 377.60 allows certain family members and other eligible people to bring a wrongful death claim when a person dies because of another’s wrongful act or negligence. Deadlines apply, and what each party is responsible for depends on what the investigation finds. Families can learn their options in a free consultation, and there is no fees or costs unless we win.
