Dump Truck Driver Causes Bodily Injury in Cairo, Randolph County Truck Crash
Our Missouri truck accident lawyers are investigating a 2 vehicle crash which occurred Thursday afternoon
on US 63 in Randolph County, Missouri. Melissa Sanchez of Vandalia,
Missouri was operating her vehicle on southbound 63 when a dump truck being
driven by 67-year-old Ronald Denson of Clifton Hill, Missouri pulled out in
front of her. Denson's failure to yield caused a violent collision,
critically injuring Ms. Sanchez and her passenger Judy Dodd of Curryville,
Missouri. Both Sanchez and Dodd were taken to Moberly Regional Hospital
to be treated for their injuries.
Truck driver Mr. Denson was reportedly uninjured and able to drive his truck from the scene with minimal damage. It is unknown why Mr. Denson prematurely entered the highway, directly in to the oncoming traffic flow of Ms. Sanchez. The insurance companies involved in this case may dispute liability as a "he said, she said" type of truck crash. The insurance carrier or Mr. Denson and/or his dump truck may contest responsibility for covering all damages sustained in this wreck. This includes damage to the vehicles, as well as personal injuries to both Ms. Sanchez and her passenger, Ms. Dodd. However, it is critical for anyone injured in a Missouri dump truck accident to obtain quality medical care as soon as possible.
It is also critical to cease communication with insurance companies. Often times through letters, statements, and documents to sign, insurance companies of the at-fault party will attempt to 'trick' the injured in to settling a claim. Seeking experienced legal representation at this time is also in the best interest of the injured parties in order to fully understand their claim and what to expect as a result. Being involved in a Missouri motor vehicle crash is tragic enough - do not add to this tragedy and be treated unfairly by an insurance company.
