Magnolia, NJ (May 29, 2024) – A crash in Magnolia, Camden County, left one New Jersey American Water worker dead and three others injured on May 29, police reported.
The White Horse Pike was shut down in both directions after the fatal crash, which happened just before 10:00 a.m., according to the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office. The Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said a woman hit a curb, a bush, and four New Jersey American Water workers as she drove through the work zone on the 500 block of White Horse Pike. The northbound lane of the White Horse Pike was shut down for road work as crews were installing a meter pit near the Warwick Road intersection.
One of the workers was pronounced dead on the scene, according to the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office. One worker was taken to Cooper University Hospital in critical condition. The two other workers were taken to Jefferson Hospital in Stratford with minor injuries, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said. There were no other reported injuries, but the crash remains under investigation.
We extend our deepest condolences to the deceased victim’s family. Our thoughts are extended to the injured victims and their families in hopes of their full recovery.
Fatal Vehicle Accidents in New Jersey
Every day, dozens of people are injured or killed in vehicle accidents in New Jersey. Even though most of these collisions are mere “fender benders,” accident victims may suffer significant injuries. Moreover, 59,500 persons in New Jersey were injured in automobile-related incidents this year alone.
Serious car crashes may happen on any roadway, although they happen more often on heavily used thoroughfares and intersections. Moreover, a car accident may change your life forever and can happen in a second. But when you’ve been hurt in an accident that was not your fault, you can and should consult with an attorney who will advocate on your behalf.
The aftermath of a vehicle accident is difficult to handle on your own. Thankfully, experienced personal injury attorneys in New Jersey can help victims of car accidents navigate the complex legal system and construct the most compelling case possible on their client’s behalf. In addition, your lawyer may advise you on gathering evidence supporting your claim. The following elements must exist for your case to succeed: first, you and every other motorist are entitled to a reasonable “duty of care” or caution from other drivers. Next, an at-fault driver has violated this duty of care. From there, your crash occurred because the other motorist disregarded their duty of care. Finally, your injuries and other losses may be traced back to the accident as the primary cause.
If a loved one was killed in an accident, you should contact a wrongful death lawyer in Magnolia without delay. These events can significantly affect your life and result in financial damages that you don’t have to bear alone.
