Specialized Care and Transport
This incident was challenging for a number of reasons. Numerous agencies reported to the scene, including several with specialized equipment to reach the person. Eventually, a plan was developed to reach the individual and bring them to a designated medical evacuation landing zone.
The process took some time. Police did not release any information about the person or their condition, nor what caused the accident. Police are investigating the off-road motor vehicle accident to determine who is at fault.
Proving Fault in an Accident
In a serious accident like this, the property owner, vehicle owner, and driver may each bear a portion of the fault. It will be up to the police and your attorney to determine who should pay for medical losses.
