Bangor, ME (November 14, 2024) – A 28-year-old Bangor-area man was killed in a head-on crash on Monday morning, November 11.

The Van Buren County Sheriff’s Office says the fatal crash happened around 5:15 a.m. on Maine Highway 43 near 66th Street in Geneva Township when an eastbound passenger vehicle hit a westbound SUV head-on.

Deputies say the victim was pinned in his car and died at the scene. The driver of the SUV, a 26-year-old Lawrence-area woman, was also pinned in and had to be freed by firefighters. She was taken to the hospital with injuries that were considered serious but not life-threatening. The crash was under investigation, but information about any other injured victims or pending citations was unavailable. That said, no further details were released in the interim, and the inquiry remains active.

We offer our sincere condolences to the deceased man's family members. Our thoughts are also with the injured victims and their loved ones at this time.

Deadly Vehicle Collisions in Maine

Tragically, severe injuries from auto accidents often become deadly. Nothing can replace a family member's loved one lost in a car accident, but pursuing legal action can help families obtain justice and hold the careless driver accountable.

It usually only takes keeping track of bills and demonstrating payment to calculate the costs associated with a loved one's illness and passing. Loss of support claims are more intricate, however: how much a deceased loved one would have been anticipated to provide to the household going forward determines how such a loss is awarded. The following factors will affect that amount:

• Your loved one's profession and employment history
• The age of your loved one when they passed away
• The number of dependents your loved one leaves behind is determined by factors including whether a spouse is present, whether they are employed, whether they have dependent children, etc.
