    Cincinnati, OH (December 4, 2023) 63-year-old Phalanza Francisco was killed in a collision on Interstate 71 in Cincinnati on Friday, December 1st, according to the Cincinnati Police Department. The accident took place at approximately 10:12 a.m. near State Route 562 to Ridge Avenue exit ramp.

    Upon arrival, officers found that a 49-year-old man was driving a Toyota 4 Runner north on the exit ramp. For reasons unknown, he slammed into the concrete wall. The driver didn’t mention that he was injured after the collision. However, a 63-year-old passenger in the Toyota 4 Runner was found with life-threatening injuries in the back seat. He was rushed to UC Medical Center where he later died from his injuries, according to authorities. He was later identified by the medical examiner as Phalanza Francisco.

    After investigating the scene and speaking to witnesses, officers determined that excessive speed was a factor in this deadly collision. They also believe that impairment was a factor as well. No arrests have been made at this time, but officers are still investigating this fatal accident in Cincinnati on I-71.

    Liability In Cincinnati Car Accidents

    Despite improved safety measures for cars, motor vehicle accidents remain one of the leading causes of serious injury and death in the United States.  According to the CDC, “more than 32,000 people are killed and 2 million are injured each year from motor vehicle crashes.” There are a number of factors that could potentially contribute to a car accident including:

    • Speeding
    • Distracted driving
    • Inclement weather
    • Dangerous turns
    • Poorly designed roadways

    All drivers have a legal obligation to exercise due care in order to avoid causing accidents. This is especially true for commercial drivers that work for a city. A number of collisions are due to drivers that make dangerous left turns. Pursuant to California Vehicle Code 21801, the driver of any vehicle intending to turn left must yield the right of way traveling from the opposite direction close enough to pose a hazard.

    If a negligent driver worked for a city, that city could potentially be liable in the event of an accident. Generally speaking, employers are vicariously liable for the negligent actions of their employees – insofar as those employees were working within the course and scope of their job duties. There are a number of steps that should be taken after a car accident.

    • Photos of the accident site should be taken.
    • Surveillance footage should be sought.
    • Medical records should be preserved.
    • Eye witnesses should be interviewed.
    • A thorough independent investigation should be conducted.

    The family of any victim that has died in a car accident may have legal recourse through a bodily injury claim. Damages in a civil claim can help cover lost wages, medical bills and funeral expenses. It is essential that evidence is properly preserved after a car accident. A car accident attorney can examine all of the facts of your case and let you know what your legal options are.
