A single lane was blocked off to traffic on the Northbound Interstate 95 today due to a tractor-trailer accident. The vehicle tried to exit the highway
The accident happened at approximately 7 a.m. around the Western Avenue and Civic Center Drive off-ramps. The lane was opened later in the day. However, the remnants of the crash were still being hauled away while the lanes were re-opened.
The driver of the tractor-trailer was identified as Massachusetts resident Joshua Linfield. He sustained injuries to the side of his body and was transported to the hospital from the scene.
Rollover Accident Lawsuits
Filing a personal injury lawsuit after a rollover accident is possible if the cause of the accident can be determined. If the vehicle has an equipment failure or defect, and the manufacturer did not notify the driver or dealer of such, this would be a products liability personal injury lawsuit. A well-known cause of rollover accidents attributable to car equipment would be the tires. In either case, whenever a victim alleges a products liability claim an expert will be necessary as part of the case. This means giving testimony about what the manufacturer should have done and how it can be determined that the defect was the cause of the accident.
An experienced Massachusetts personal injury attorney is required for such a product liability undertaking.
