[Calexico, CA] – Jesus Abraham Ayala Killed in Accident on Cole Boulevard and Dogwood Road 

Calexico Crash on Cole Boulevard Leaves Man Deceased

October 23, 2020 – Jesus Abraham Ayala, age 29, was killed on Monday night in a tragic accident. Furthermore, the accident occurred on Cole Boulevard in Calexico.

According to authorities, the incident involved a black Hyundai Elantra and a White Jeep Cherokee. First, the CHP determined that the Elantra was driving west on Cole Boulevard. 

Meanwhile, the Jeep was driving south on Dogwood Road. Then, as the Hyundai approached the intersection, the vehicle didn’t stop and drove right into the path of the Jeep.

Unfortunately, Mr. Ayala of El Centro, died at the scene.

Additionally, the unidentified Jeep driver, a 19-year-old El Centro resident who suffered from moderate injuries. Afterward, first responders took the driver to a hospital for treatment.

The crash remains under active investigation. Also, the authorities confirmed that both drivers wore seatbelts.

It is difficult to verify who is to blame in a head-on collision. Here is how to start. 

Head-on collisions are scary.  Not only that, but they can also leave people seriously injured or worse.  

head-on collision is when cars driving in opposite directions crash hood to hood.  

Every car accident can cause injuries. However, statistics show that head-on crashes are even more likely to result in serious harm. Other outcomes include fatalities to everyone involved.  

Furthermore, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reported a 58% fatality rate for vehicle occupants in head-on collisions during 2017.  

Moreover, a head-on crash is more likely to happen in a rural area.  

Also, 13% of all rural fatal crashes are reportedly head-on. Although, fewer than 7% of fatal crashes are head-on in urban areas. 

What can cause a head-on collision? 

Usually, an accident is just an accident. It could happen for any number of mechanical reasons. For instance, brake failure or a power steering outage. 

But sometimes, a head-on accident can be caused when one driver is driving on the wrong side of the road.  

Frequently, it is because of drunk or distracted driving. Never the less, driving while texting, unsafe passing, drowsy driving are all other examples of what can cause a collision. 

Other reasons why a driver might swerve into the opposite lane are, avoiding an animal, debris in the road, or even icy patches. 

Ascertaining who is at fault in a head-on collision 

That is usually the first question that your insurance company will ask. However, the initial impact of a crash could send each car in a different direction.  

As a result, it could be hard to know immediately how the crash occurred.  Yet, blame normally lies with the person who caused the accident.  

Their insurance company is the one pay for any injury or death claims. Sadly, if an insurance claim cannot be made, it often turns into a personal injury lawsuit.  

Furthermore, the plaintiff must establish what they are owed by the defendant.  

Usually, with estimates from expensive repair companies. 

Here is what to look for: 

  • Duty of care. Each driver has a legal obligation to avoid hurting other people. That means being alert, sober, well-rested, and attentive.  

You are not exercising your duty of care If you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Including,  

but not limited to prescription or over-the-counter medications that could impair you.  

  • Negligence. A driver is negligent if their conduct is not the same of what is expected of a reasonable person.  

Examples of “road rage” include driving the wrong way on a one-way street, entering a highway using an off-ramp, or even driving excessively fast. 

  • Cause. This part is straightforward in any car accident. For injury claims, the plaintiff must prove that their injuries were caused directly by the actions of the defendant. 

 

Fault systems state by state 

Each state handles fault differently. The court is the determining factor in the liability of both parties of a head-on car accident.  

For example, if the other driver was intoxicated and swerved into your lane, the court might decide that he was 95% at fault. 

However, it could also decide that you reacted slowly, because you did not swerve out of the way in time. The court could argue that the accident might not have happened to begin with.  

If that is how they rule, then the court would apportion you 5% of liability. 

How it goes from there is purely on a state by state basis.
