Magna, UT (November 30, 2020) – A two-vehicle collision that took place on SR-201 on Friday, November 27th in Magna Township resulted in the death of a 33-year-old woman.
A trooper from the Utah Highway Patrol stated that, at about 10:30 p.m., the woman was heading northbound on 7200 West in a black Hyundai Sonata. For reasons that have yet to be determined, she entered the intersection at the same time as a Nissan Titan, driven by a 19-year-old man, causing the two vehicles to collide.
The woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the Nissan, as well as his 20-year-old passenger, both sustained injuries that were classified as non-life-threatening.
We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victims and their families in hopes of a full recovery.
Even if no design flaws, such as obstructed road signs or potholes are present. intersections offer a unique set of dangers for Utah motorists. There could be multiple drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists simultaneously heading in various directions at various speeds. Some intersections have as many as six lanes converging together.
Intersection collisions, even those that take place at slower speeds, could cause severe and possibly life-threatening injuries. Safety features such as airbags and seatbelts diminish the possibility of injury, but they are no guarantee of safety.
When victims are injured in accidents caused by the negligence of other drivers, it is crucial that they seek legal guidance from a skilled and knowledgeable car accident attorney in Salt Lake City as soon as possible. When victims are harmed in collisions, through no fault of their own, they are often able to obtain compensation from wrongdoers to alleviate the financial costs they face for medical treatment, lost wages, property repairs, and a variety of other economic and non-economic damages.
