Teen killed in car crash | Toledo Ohio car accident lawyer

On Monday, truck driver Herschel Roberts was sentenced to three years in prison for driving over a bicyclist in September of 2009.

The accident happened when Herschel was driving a 26,000 pound truck and failed to see bicyclist Sylvia Bingham. Sylvia had stopped just behind the truck and was about to proceed through the intersectio,n when Herschel made a wide right turn without putting on his turn signal. By law, Hershel had a duty to look in the truck's mirrors before turning.

Ms. Bingham was a 21 year-old experienced bicyclist who had just recently graduated from Yale Unviersity. She was working in Cleveland and on her way to work when she was hit. Mr. Herschel did not realize he had hit anyone and never stopped.
