Car Accident Injures Six Teens

An early morning car accident in Alameda, California has left six teenagers injured. The driver was a fifteen year old boy who had taken his parent’s vehicle without their permission. Four of the passengers involved were also fifteen year olds. One passenger was thirteen. The accident occurred at approximately 1:30 in the morning. None of the vehicle’s occupants had permission from their parents to be out at that time.  

The driver apparently crashed into a tree. The cause of the accident is currently unknown. Authorities are investigating whether alcohol was a factor. Every person involved in the crash suffered injuries, but none as seriously as the driver. 1 800 411 Pain understands that an auto accident can occur unexpectedly and usually allow little or no time to react. This is why 1 800 411 Pain advises that motorists be as alert as possible while driving.

Driver Causes Estimated $13,000 in Damage in Accident

One driver is responsible for an estimated $13,000 in damage following an accident involving three vehicles, two of which were parked. Thirty five year old, Brent Otterson was under the influence of drugs when the accident occurred. Otterson was traveling on the 600 block of First Avenue South in Jamestown, VA at approximately four in the morning on June 5th. He reached down to adjust his radio and lost control of his car. He slammed into a parked vehicle, which was forced into another vehicle. Otterson immediately left the scene, but was apprehended shortly after. He was taken into custody for driving while under the influence of drugs and for failure to give immediate notice of an accident.

1 800 411 Pain strongly advises drivers against driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Not only is this illegal, but it is also extremely dangerous. Otterson is very fortunate that his actions did not harm anyone. Had there been people in those cars, the outcome could have been much different. 1 800 411 Pain wants to see the roads a safer place for everyone. Do not drive while under the influence of any mind-altering substances.

Six Car Accident Injures Two

A six-car accident in Lansing Township, Michigan resulted in two people being transported to the hospital on May 15, 2012. Police say the accident occurred when a vehicle traveling southbound rear-ended another vehicle. This caused a chain reaction of collisions, resulting in six vehicles being involved in the accident. Reports say that officials closed traffic in the inside lane of U.S. 127. The condition of the individuals transported to the hospital was said to be stable. 1 800 411 Pain recommends being an attentive driver at all times. A mistake as simple as taking your eyes off the road for just a few seconds can be devastating.

    1 800 411 Pain would like to see the roads a safer place for everyone. This is why they strongly encourage motorists to stay alert and to drive as cautiously as possible.

Fatality Rates Among Inexperienced Drivers

Studies have shown that young drivers (under 21) are at a significantly higher risk of being involved in traffic accidents when passengers under 21 are present. Much like cell phones, teenage passengers can be extremely distracting. This can be disastrous for an inexperienced driver.    

“At age 17 or younger, a driver’s chances of being involved in a fatal car accident increases by 44 percent when a passenger under the age of 21 is present.  The chances are doubled when two passengers under 21 are present and quadrupled with the presence of three or more. When a passenger 35 or older is present, fatality rates decrease dramatically. Fatality rates are lowered by as much as 62 percent when a passenger over 35 is present (SeattleTimes.com).” 1 800 411 Pain strongly recommends the presence of an experienced driver when young drivers are traveling with friends. Friends can be extremely distracting and a young, inexperienced driver may have difficulty juggling the attention of their peers while trying to focus on the road.     

In an effort to reduce the number of fatal car accidents among young drivers, many states are considering laws that will prevent drivers under 21 from traveling with passengers who are also under 21 unless someone over 21 is present. As a company dedicated to safer driving practices and trends, 1 800 411 Pain’s goal is to see the roads a safer place to travel. Auto accidents are far too common these days. 1 800 411 Pain appreciates the opportunity to be in a position to help motorists become safer, more alert drivers.

Drunk Driver Faces Multiple Charges

Twenty six year old James Sopuch has been charged with driving while intoxicated following an accident in which he hit another vehicle and knocked down a utility pole. Officials say that Sopuch was traveling over the speed limit when he collided with a Saturn in his Chevy Blazer. When police arrived on the scene, Sopuch was trapped in his vehicle. The Bayview Volunteer Fire Company removed Sopuch from the wreck. He was then transported to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center, where he was treated for minor injuries. Neither Steven Senecal, the driver of the Saturn, nor his passenger Julianna Monfredo, was injured in the accident. In addition to DUI, Sopuch will be charged with reckless driving, failure to maintain his lane and failure to wear a seatbelt.

  1 800 411 Pain is against driving while under the influence of alcohol or any other performance altering substances.

All three individuals involved were very fortunate that there were no fatalities or serious injuries. As a company devoted to educating drivers on safer driving habits, 1 800 411 Pain encourages motorists to adhere to all driving laws.
