Friday night, A man died after his car going south on Flying Cloud Drive crossed into the northbound lanes and hit a another car head-on. The driver of the northbound car was hospitalized. There were also two minors that were passengers and said to be unharmed. Investigation continues as to what happened.

This death, like any other on Minnesota roads is particularly unfortunate considering it comes two months after the Minnesota Department of Public Safety (MDPS) reported that overall the number of highway deaths has been down for 2009 with more than 300 people having died this year in Minnesota traffic collisions. There were 458 deaths in 2008, which was a drop from 510 in 2007.

As with any death in a Minnesota motor vehicle collision, there are many issues that will need to be reviewed. My partner, Joe Crumley, addressed this topic in a recent article for the Minnesota Lawyers Trial magazine. I was interviewed last year on the same topic. In this accident sorrow for the families and friends of those involved goes out.
