Date:<\/strong> May 26, 2010
\nUbicaci\u00f3n:<\/strong> U.S. Highway 97 near Madras, Oregon
\nNombres:<\/strong> John Easterling, Balihar Singh<\/p>\n

A 79-year-old Madras, Oregon man was critically injured May 26, 2010, when the car he was driving crashed with a commercial truck, according to the Madras Pioneer<\/em>. The truck driver was not injured in the crash, which happened sometime after 9:20 PM on U.S. 97 north of Madras.<\/p>\n

Preliminary investigation by Oregon State Police indicates that John Easterling, 79, was driving a passenger car in the northbound lane when it crashed nearly head-on with a loaded semi truck and trailer driven by Balihar Singh, 47, of Sacramento, California.<\/p>\n

Easterling was initially taken by ambulance to Mountain View Hospital, then flown by Air Link air ambulance to St. Charles Medical Center in Bend for treatment of critical injuries.<\/p>\n

The semi truck caught fire and was completely destroyed.<\/p>\n

OSP troopers are continuing to investigate with the help of a crash reconstructionist, and are checking into a report that Easterling was driving without headlights, and Singh swerved to try to avoid the collision.<\/p>\n

The Oregon truck crash closed the highway for four hours while hazmat crews and towing personnel worked to remove the vehicles.<\/p>\n

We would like to let Easterling know that we\u2019re thinking of him, and we send our wishes for a quick recovery. We are also thinking of Singh, and we\u2019re grateful he survived without injury.<\/p>\n

At this point, we don\u2019t know what happened to cause this crash. If you\u2019ve been in an Oregon accident, you probably have many questions too. But after an accident, there\u2019s so much confusion and trauma, our minds don\u2019t often focus where they need to be. When you should be focusing on your health and recovery, you\u2019re distracted by a million financial questions \u2013 medical bills, insurance policies, lost wages. How will you and your family get through it?<\/p>\n

Fortunately, victims have resources. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here. We\u2019re not ambulance chasers; we’re lawyers who feel it is our duty to help injured people deal with the insurance companies. And the first thing you should do after getting the medical help you need is to go to our website \u2013 not to give us your business, but to read our free tips, download helpful documents, or request a free copy of our book. And if that\u2019s not enough, you can always contact our Abogados de accidentes de cami\u00f3n en Portland<\/a> to ask us any questions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
