New Haven Crash Kills 20 Year Old Woman

Naika Nicole Rosa-Rosa, 20 of Meriden was killed when her vehicle skidded off the road and hit a tree. Her passenger Wandallz Valle-Quinonez, 34, was severely injured, as reported by courant.com. The incident happened around 2:45 am on Chapel Street. The officers later revealed that the police had asked her to pull over earlier but she tried to evade the patrol officer’s car.
Not smart!

This caused her to speed. The crash investigator said that bad weather coupled with speed caused the vehicle skid out of control and hit the tree. Hartford, CT accident lawyers such as Melocowsky & Melocowsky always recommend that any driver who is asked by the police to pull over must oblige immediately or else face the consequences of hit and run in an auto accident (well if they get into an accident at least during this episode) as well.

Sen. Andrew Maynard’s Crash Leaves Questions Unanswered

Sen. Andrew Maynard (D-Stonington) suffered a severe concussion after he was in a car accident which happened in Waterford on Route 32. Hopefully he is not on the Affordable Care Act which he voted for since hoping government ran health care will come through for you is a long shot. Maynard voted for that unappealing law that spent millions of dollars on a website that did not work and even worse, raised health care costs for millions of people - exactly what it was not supposed to do. 

He was driving home alone in his car after meeting his colleagues at the Capitol in Hartford. Police reports claim that the senator was travelling in the wrong direction when his vehicle struck another car and ended up in a ditch on the side of the road, according to courant.com.


When officers arrived at the scene they found Maynard drifting in and out of consciousness in his badly damaged vehicle. The officers did not find any indication of intoxication. He was taken to a local hospital and kept there for 4 days. The doctors wanted to conduct extensive tests since he had an earlier brain injury. There are millions of Americans who hope they do not have a brain injury since they do not want to have to deal with the Affordable Care Act. There is not one country in the world that can afford socialized health care and have a strong military to defend its population, wonderful economy, and a country that has as much innovation as America used to have, so many people are wondering why Maynard and his colleagues took America down this route?

America used to have the best health care in the world, that is not the case anymore. Another question to ask is, why was this politician on the wrong side of the road?

Maynard was also earlier involved in an accident when he fell from some stairs in July of 2014. The accident happened while he was helping his neighbor move some furniture. He did not need a Hartford, CT accident attorney for this. If he did, he should have called Melocowsky & Melocowsky which are the best lawyers in this state and some of the finest legal pros in the entire American Northeast.

Due to this injury he spent 6 months in a rehabilitation center but the fall did not impact his attendance in legislative proceedings. He was present in almost all the sessions and appeared in caucus discussions and to vote. Maynard speech was impaired after the accident in July and so he seldom addressed the senate.

The accident raises doubts about his ability to serve in the legislature. Le Fasano, who is the leader of the Republicans in the senate, wished him a speedy recovery. He also said that to put these rumors to rest Maynard must appear before the public and make a statement. Robert Reardon, Maynard’s lawyer, said that his client had been advised bed rest and is in no position to address the public.

Some people just do not know when to retire. Hey, when you are being paid well to work only a few hours a week, it is hard to walk away from that. John McCain, Barbara Boxer, Nancy Pelosi, know all about that.

The police spoke to Reardon but was not given access to him citing health issues. The crash report is yet to be released since it involves high profile accident. 

Connecticut’s Accident Laws

According to Connecticut accident lawyers, the state has adopted the comparative fault system. This means when you file an accident claim the insurance provider or the jury will determine if you are partly or completely responsible for the accident even when you are the victim.

A percentage of fault will be assigned to you and compensation will depend on that percentage. For example, if you are hit by a speeding vehicle while crossing the road where there is no cross-over sign you may be deemed to be 10% guilty while the other driver 90%. The driver will pay 90% of the damages but the remaining 10% must be paid from your pocket, say Hartford, CT accident lawyers such as Melocowsky & Melocowsky who have been around the block before and know this legal domain like you know your profession.
