Sparks, NV- A young man, walking along a dark road was killed Tuesday, after being struck by an oncoming vehicle.

According to Sparks police, Randall William Woods, 26, was walking along McCarran just west of Probasco. This particular stretch of road is very dark and Woods was struck by a vehicle. He flew 75 ft. upon impact; he was pronounced dead on the scene. An investigation revealed that Woods was partially in the road when the accident occurred.

The driver remained on the scene and cooperated with police. Authorities do not believe drugs or alcohol contributed to the accident.

An autopsy will be conducted on Woods to determine if he was intoxicated.

Pedestrians are especially vulnerable to fatal or serious injuries when they are struck by a vehicle. In many instances, the pedestrian is not paying attention and contributes to an accident. However, there are many cases where an accident attorney has determined that a driver is responsible for a pedestrian’s injurious or fatal accident.

Personal injuries can range from minor to severe. Often the people, who are seriously injured, are unable to work while they recover. Without steady income, these injury victims will become overwhelmed by medical expenses. These victims don’t have to struggle when they hire a Nevada accident lawyer to work on their case. Their experience will be crucial in getting the maximum settlement an auto accident victim is entitled to.

A Nevada traffic accident attorney will utilize their skills to make certain that accident victims are awarded a favorable judgment that covers their medical care and the pain they endured.

    Its amazing what the down-sides are after being in an accident, some people even go through rough economic crunches where they face foreclosure and end up losing their homes because they just can’t work. True story!
