According to data reported by the California Highway Patrol, the Suisun City Police Department, and the Solano County Sheriff's Office, there were 20,190 injury-causing car accidents across Solano County between 2009 and 2020. About 411 of these collisions caused fatal injuries. In Suisun City alone, there were 448 collisions, and 15 were fatal. This data shows that crashes in Suisun City were nearly twice as likely to cause a fatal injury compared to collisions countywide.

The most common causal factors for fatal Suisun City accidents were driving while under the influence, right-of-way violations, and speeding. These three factors accounted for nearly three-quarters of deadly Suisun City car accidents. Additionally, 20 percent of these collisions involved pedestrians, while around 13 percent involved bicyclists.

The death of a family member or friend is never easy, and losing somebody without any warning can make grieving even more difficult. It's common for mourning individuals to feel an intense and confusing mix of emotions, including anger, sadness, anxiety, or shock. While coping with your grief may seem impossible, many people can heal by seeking support from family members, friends, and communities.

Here are some tips that may help individuals cope with grief:

• Allow yourself to grieve: Giving yourself permission to experience your emotions entirely is essential. Allow yourself to feel the pain and sadness that comes with loss.
• Seek support: Don't hesitate to contact family, friends, or a support group to help you through the grieving process. Sometimes, talking with others who have experienced a similar loss can be especially helpful.
• Take care of yourself: Grief can take a physical toll on the body, so it's important to prioritize self-care. Eat well, exercise, and try to get enough rest.
• Seek professional help: If you have difficulty coping with grief, it's important to remember that seeking professional help is a valid and effective way to manage your emotions. A therapist or counselor can provide tools and strategies to navigate your feelings healthily and constructively.
• Express your grief: Finding ways to express your grief can be cathartic, whether through writing, art, or other forms of creative expression.
• Remember your loved one: Finding ways to honor and remember your loved one can help you find closure and meaning in your grief. This might include creating a memorial, participating in a remembrance event, or sharing memories with others.

Remember that everyone experiences grief differently, and there's no right or wrong way to cope. Give yourself time and be patient as you navigate this challenging time.

Losing somebody in your family can cause sudden, serious financial issues for you and your loved ones. In many cases, families lose the primary income earner in their household and aren't sure how they'll afford their bills. In others, families suffer because their loved one is no longer around to perform critical services like childcare, cleaning, home maintenance, or cooking. These services are often vital and can be very expensive to replace.

Besides coping with grief, these issues can leave families feeling completely overwhelmed. However, these losses can potentially be recovered through wrongful death claims. Holding at-fault parties and their insurers financially responsible makes it possible for families to claim the compensation they need for financial security in difficult times.

Not only can families seek compensation for their economic losses, but wrongful death cases also often include payments for non-economic damages related to personal suffering. These damages can include loss of companionship, parental guidance, and other issues related to your well-being.

Losing a loved one in a preventable accident is a heart-wrenching experience that can leave families feeling lost and alone. During this challenging time, seeking compassionate and professional help to navigate the legal process and protect your rights is essential.
