MS Coast Seabee Killed on Motorcycle in Tanker Truck Accident

Tanker2

Earlier this summer, in late June, the terrible news of the death of a Seabee (a member of the United States Naval Construction Battalion) stationed on the Mississippi Coast spread across headlines in Mississippi and beyond. According to the Mississippi Sun Herald, the terrible accident occurred on Wednesday morning, June 26, in Harrison County, Mississippi. Reports indicate that the Seabee that was killed was riding his motorcycle north on Canal Road in Harrison County when a tanker truck that was hauling water pulled out in front of him quickly. The Seabee hit the side of the water tanker truck with his motorcycle north of Interstate 10 near an Exxon gas station, and he was killed. The Seabee has been identified as 27-year-old Chandler Bean. Bean was originally from Michigan but had been stationed in Gulfport and was a Seabee on the Coast. The unfortunate fatal truck accident serves as a reminder of how dangerous truck accidents can be, and raises questions in the mind of many Mississippi drivers and residents about whether victims of truck accidents have rights to compensation under Mississippi personal injury laws.

What Can Mississippi Families Do if a Loved One is Killed in a Truck Accident Due to the Truck Driver’s Fault?

It is important for Mississippi families to know that if their loved one is killed in a car accident due to the negligence or criminal acts of a truck driver, they may be entitled to compensation for their unfathomable loss. Mississippi families who have lost a loved one to a truck accident that was the truck driver’s fault may be entitled to money compensation for their injuries and losses under Mississippi personal injury laws. In the case of a truck driving accident, if the truck was a commercial truck driven by a trucking company employee, certain surviving family members of the deceased victim may bring a case in court against not only the individual driver, but also the trucking employer. Of course, the facts and circumstances of every truck accident case are different, so it is always best to speak with an experienced Mississippi personal injury lawyer as soon as possible about your rights and options if you are interested in seeking compensation for the loss of a loved one due to a negligent truck driver.
