Red Light Runners Kill

As an experienced Tennessee Automobile accident lawyer I am daily witness to the heroic work that our law enforcement officers and our first responders carry out on a daily basis. In all sorts of weather and at all hours of the day or night, the men and women of Tennessee law enforcement put it all on the line.

It saddens me to report that Springhill Police Corporal Jeremy McLaren died yesterday of injuries he received when a Shelbyville man ran a red light and T-boned Office McLaren’s police car. At first report it looked like Corporal McLaren was going to recover. Media reports had him out of surgery and getting around and there is no news on what caused his downfall. My prayers go out to his Wife and Parents and the community of Springhill for the loss of a husband, son and public servant.

Each year crashes involving red light running claim the lives of more than 800 people and injure another 200,000 people. More than half of the deaths in red light running crashes are other motorists and pedestrians, so there should be no debate about the fact that red light runners are dangerous drivers who put other road users at risk.
