A three-car crash in Muskogee County on State Highway 10 left one man dead and another with leg injuries, according to ABC News affiliate KTUL<\/em><\/a>. The 33-year-old driver of a Dodge pickup truck was trying to pass several vehicles in a no passing zone when he struck another vehicle and crashed head on into a Chevrolet truck driven by a 40-year-old man. The 40-year-old motorist was pinned in his vehicle for half an hour before succumbing to his injuries while the 33-year-old driver suffered leg injuries and was taken to an area hospital for treatment. There was no word on whether or not anyone in the third vehicle sustained injury.<\/p>\n

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2008, there were 34,017 traffic fatalities with 749 in Oklahoma alone. All motorists have a responsibility to practice safe driving in order to prevent tragedies like this story. However, many drivers still drive aggressively which can cause wrongful death car accidents in Oklahoma. <\/p>\n

A proper investigation must be completed in any car accident case; however, if another person\u2019s negligence is found to be the cause of a fatal car crash in Oklahoma<\/a>, that individual could be held legally responsible for their actions. <\/p>\n

In addition to the very sudden loss of a loved one, a family must cope with financial responsibilities of a death, including funeral costs, loss of income, loss of help, pain and suffering, and other burdens.
