TAMARAC, FL, (October 29, 2024) - A tragic accident occurred Tuesday afternoon when a Tamarac man, Maximiliano Modesti, was killed after his motorcycle collided with a car at the intersection of Nob Hill Road and N.W. 67th Street. Modesti was riding a 2007 Yamaha R1 southbound on Nob Hill Road around 3 p.m. when the crash happened.
Maximiliano Modesti was killed in a motorcycle accident in Tamarac on Tuesday when his motorcycle collided with a Honda Civic.
According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, a woman was driving a 2020 Honda Civic east on N.W. 67th Street when she attempted to make a left turn onto Nob Hill Road, driving into Modesti’s path.
Emergency responders from Tamarac Fire Rescue arrived at the scene and rushed Modesti to Broward Health Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The woman was also transported to a local hospital for evaluation and was later released.
An investigation into the circumstances surrounding the crash is ongoing as authorities work to piece together the details of this tragic incident.
MOTORCYCLE CRASH INVESTIGATION
This accident underscores the dangers that motorcyclists face on our roadways each day. According to the most recent data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration National Center for Statistics and Analysis, there were 5,636 motorcycle fatalities in 2021 — the highest number ever recorded.
Candice Bond, an experienced motorcycle accident attorney, said in such cases, it is imperative to preserve evidence through an independent probe.
“In addition to a police report, an attorney will carefully review what may have contributed to the crash,” said Bond, Managing Partner at Bond Legal. “Your lawyer has the resources to hire expert witnesses, conduct drivers’ background checks, locate witnesses to the crash and review applicable insurance coverage. Serving as an advocate, an attorney can help compassionately guide the heartbroken family of a victim during this difficult time, protecting their legal rights while ensuring that a driver is held accountable after disobeying traffic laws.”
WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM
Pending the investigation, the family of Maximiliano Modesti may pursue a wrongful death claim. Family members of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional distress following a tragic or catastrophic accident such as this.
“The stress and sorrow can be extremely overwhelming after losing a loved one in an accident,” said Bond.
“We understand just what families must go through, and having their rights protected is vital. A wrongful death lawyer will stay updated on the official investigation and help ensure that their legal rights and best interests are protected."
