One Death After New Hampshire Bus Accident

Bus2

In April of 2025, a family lost a loved one after a rollover car accident. This crash has left the victim’s loved ones completely devastated. If you have experienced something like this, you know how life-altering fatal crashes can be. A New Hampshire accident lawyer may be able to help you pursue compensation for funeral costs, unpaid medical bills, and non-economic damages.

Single-Vehicle Rollover Crash on I-93 Claims Life of Driver 

In April of 2025, multiple sources reported that a fatal, single-vehicle crash had occurred on I-93 in New Hampshire. State Troopers say that the victim was driving a 1999 Oldsmobile when he veered onto the median and began rolling over. The vehicle continued to roll many times, ejecting the driver and causing catastrophic injuries. Police arrived to find the victim on the road, outside his heavily damaged vehicle.

It soon became clear that the man was deceased, and first responders could not do much to help him. Authorities are still trying to determine why the man left the roadway, and anyone with information about the crash has been urged to come forward. With that said, the lack of median barriers has been a subject of considerable controversy in New Hampshire. Many argue that these barriers are long overdue, and one might argue that a median barrier could prevent a crash like this. While this lack of median barriers may not be the basis for a lawsuit, barriers which are improperly maintained could be a basis for liability. Because single car crashes are often very difficult to pursue, it is important to speak to an attorney early so that the available evidence can be considered to determine who is responsible for the crash.

What Kinds of Injuries Can a Rollover Crash Cause? 

The worst rollover crashes occur when victims do not wear their seat belts. Without a seat belt, a driver is completely at the mercy of the laws of physics. Due to the tremendous forces at play, the victim may be ejected out of the vehicle. If this occurs, the victim may suffer catastrophic injuries due to impacts with the road. They may also be crushed by their own vehicle as it rolls over top of them.

Even if a victim wears their seat belt, they may suffer a range of catastrophic, potentially fatal injuries. The rolling motion could cause a spinal cord injury, potentially leading to partial or total paralysis. It may also cause the victim’s head to strike the interior of the car, leading to traumatic brain injuries.

If your loved one was injured or died in a rollover crash, you may be able to pursue compensation. However, you must establish that someone other than the injured/killed person was responsible for causing the crash. A personal injury attorney can help in this evaluation.

Can a New Hampshire Accident Lawyer Help After a Fatal Crash? 

A New Hampshire accident lawyer may be able to help after a fatal crash. Incidents like the one on the I-93 can affect families for many years, and the grief may never truly fade. But while nothing will ever bring back deceased loved ones, a wrongful death claim can at least help cover funeral costs, medical bills, lost wages, and the loss of enjoyment of life suffered by the deceased. A spouse or children may also be entitled to a claim for the loss on consortium – that is, the losses suffered because of their loved one’s death.
