Amy Witherite-Overton pickup truck runs down 6 scouts

Dallas truck wreck injury lawyer-Amy Witherite-a truck injury attorney alerts 6 scouts hurt! Overton-New London Christmas parade struck by Chevy pickup truck.

December 2, 2008, Dallas, TX (AmericanInjuryNews.com)–Aggressive in the Texas courts with personal injury and wrongful death claims, Amy Witherite, a truck wreck injury attorney reports tragedy at Overton-New London annual Christmas parade. According to the Overton, Texas city attorney, the driver of a red Chevrolet pickup truck drove around a parade barricade at approximately 6 p.m. and struck two female cub scout leaders and six cub scout boys waiting to march in the annual Christmas parade. One boy’s injuries were so severe he was airlifted to Children’s Medical Center in Dallas, and the remaining injured holiday paraders were taken to Mother Frances Hospital in Tyler, Texas. The breathalyzer performed on the elderly gentleman was negative for the presence of alcohol. Reports have surfaced the elderly gentleman may have been confused.

Concerned Dallas County pickup truck wreck injury attorney, Witherite, with the personal injury law firm of Eberstein & Witherite in Dallas, Texas says confusion in elderly drivers is not uncommon. Witherite further asserts drivers license renewal requirements by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/ may be not be strict enough. The following are the requirements for online/telephone renewal of Texas drivers licenses:

-Your license expires within one year of today’s date and has not been expired for more than two years.
-Texas requires renewal every 6 years
-Your last renewal was completed in person at a Texas driver license office.
-You are renewing a Class C or CM license.
-You have no change in your vision, physical or mental condition that would affect your ability to operate a motor vehicle
-Your record indicates that you are eligible to renew online. (No outstanding traffic tickets or warrants).
-You currently have a Texas residential or mailing address

Assertive truck wreck victims advocate for all Texans, Witherite, a Dallas truck wreck injury attorney says under the Texas drivers license online/telephone renewal program a driver can go for a total of 12 years without being seen in person by a DPS official. For an 80 year-old individual this means they have not been seen since they were 68 years of age. A lot can occur with vision, physical and mental capacities in 12 years in the elderly. Innocent Texans are injured by confused and reckless pickup truck drivers every year in Texas. Injured victims may be entitled to compensation for their damages and injuries.
