I read a tragic story today about a person killed and one injured in a fatal semi-truck accident on April 1st, 2010  in Oakland County. The truck accident took place on Grand River Avenue near Napier Road in Lyon Township, on the western edge of Detroit metro area and was between a car and a semi tractor trailer.

According to the Oakland County Sheriff officers, a 28 year old man was traveling east on Grand River Avenue with a passenger when he suddenly lost control of his vehicle. The driver crossed over the center line into the westbound lane where the truck driver swerved into the eastbound lanes to avoid the collision. When the truck driver swerved to avoid the car, the driver of the car moved back into the correct lane crashing into the semi truck trailer’s back axle.

The driver sustained serious injuries and the passenger of the vehicle was prounounced dead at the scene.  I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and wish my most heart-felt condolences to the family of the passenger for their loss.

I read a story in the news today about a fatal US-23 semi-truck accident that occurred near Silver Lake Road by Ann Arbor on Tuesday, October 20th. According to the Michigan State Police, a 19-year-old driver was southbound in her Pontiac Grand Prix on US-23 when she allegedly lost control of her vehicle and sideswiped a semi-truck. She then allegedly crossed the median and collided with a northbound Chrysler Concord, driven by a 19-year-old Ann Arbor man.

While the truck driver was unhurt, the man in the Concord had to be cut free from the car and rushed to a local hospital for treatment of his serious injuries. The 19-year-old female driver did not survive the crash. The police are still investigating this accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and hope the injured man has a complete and full recovery from his serious injuries. My condolences to the family of the 19-year-old woman for their loss.

I saw a story on the news today about an Ann Arbor Gravel Hauler Accident on I-94. According to the Michigan State Police, the accident happened near Dancer Road, between Ann Arbor and Chelsea, when a gravel hauler pulled out of the construction lanes into the path of an oncoming vehicle. The driver of the vehicle was seriously injured and taken to the University of Michigan Medical Center where he is in critical condition. Police are still investigating this accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this accident and wish the driver a speedy and full recovery. I hope that he has no permanent deficits from this accident.

I read a story in the paper today about a Cadillac Truck Accident that occurred Thursday, August 20th. According to the Wexford County Sheriff, the accident occurred when a semi-transport was driving on M-115 when it allegedly struck the passenger side of a vehicle driven by Martin Tisdale, a vice-president at Baker College, travelling on West 13th Street. Tisdale and his passenger suffered serious injuries and was airlifted to Spectrum Butterworth Hospital in Grand Rapids. The accident remains under investigation.

I am very sorry to hear about this accident and wish Mr. Tisdale and his passenger a speedy and full recovery. I hope that they have no permanent deficits from this accident.
