Man Injured After Driving SUV into Utility Pole in Taunton Crash
February 4, 2010 - Taunton, Mass. - A 67-year-old man was injured Sunday morning when his SUV struck a utility pole in a Taunton, Mass. single-vehicle crash.
According to The Taunton Gazette, Roger LeClerk drove his Ford Escape SUV into a utility pole south of the Home Plate Bay Street Grill at about 11:15 a.m. LeClerk was rushed to Morton Hospital and Medical Center for the treatment of accident-related personal injuries.
Police believe that a medical condition set off the Taunton SUV crash. Authorities said LeClerk temporarily lost consciousness, causing him to veer into oncoming traffic and strike the utility pole. Emergency crews had to assist the injured driver from his SUV after the vehicle accident.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's 2008 Massachusetts Crash Statistics, there were 363 fatalities as a result of car accidents in Massachusetts.

FAQs
Vehicle Accidents
How do I deal with the residual effects of a Massachusetts car accident? At the time of the accident, I did not feel any pain, however, I did later that night. I went to the ER and they gave me pain medication for my neck and back. A few days later the pain worsened. A police report was not filed and now the other driver's insurance company is being hostile because I want to file a claim. What should I do?
I was involved in a car wreck recently in Massachusetts. My son sustained upper back and neck injuries and I suffered a concussion. The insurance adjuster is offering us $750 for pain and suffering. This seems too low, especially since I'm still suffering from headaches. Do I need a personal injury attorney?
What are my legal options if the person who hit and totaled my car did not have insurance? I suffered serious injuries as a result of this Massachusetts car accident.
