Blind Spot Car Crash Near Sacramento, CA

I was reading an article today that reminded me of the dangers of the "blind spot" while driving. Not far from our Sacramento home, a woman in San Ramon was the victim of a "blind spot" car crash.

The article tells of a 20-year old driving his Suzuki Sidekick along the freeway. He merged to get in the slow lane without seeing the San Ramon woman, Cynthia Muson-Lim, in the lane next to his car. To avoid the Sidekick, Cynthia swerved off the freeway, hitting a tree. She died at the scene.

The thing that amazed me about this story was the fact that the young man not only did not realize the woman was there initially, but even after the accident was not aware of what had happened. A witness actually followed him, lights flashing, to inform him of the crash.

Be careful when you drive. I cannot say it enough. If you or a loved one has been injured in a car accident by someone's negligence, please give us a call at the Law Offices of Moseley Collins.
