Seizure Causes Mesa Car Crash
Young people are often involved in car accidents. In 2009, teenagers and young adults ages 16 below up to 24 years of age 2,619,000 were involved in car accidents whether fatal or not.
Recently traffic came to a standstill on Stapley drive and Southern Avenue due to a car crash in Mesa. The car that had crashed was driven by a 22-year-old male and had a 19-year-old female passenger.
The 19-year-old female explained that her boyfriend, the driver, had a seizure while driving. When she realized that her boyfriend was having a seizure, he tried to steer the car from where she is seated. As a result, the car had curbed and rolled into a dirt lot.
Both were injured. The driver was airlifted to the hospital while the passenger was driven to the hospital by an ambulance. The driver is suffering life-threatening injuries and the passenger had minor injuries.
It is an unenviable incident that drivers suffer seizures while driving. These types of accidents usually result in injuries. The best protection that these drivers can have is to restrain themselves with a seatbelt and always drive with somebody, and in case something happens a person could assist them.
