Sunday Single-Vehicle Crash Victim Identified as Caliente Resident
A man who died from a single-vehicle crash on Sunday, October 18th, was identified as a 69-year-old man from Caliente named Andrew Lester Helms. California Highway Patrol is the lead investigator for the case. The accident occurred near Canton Way and Caliente Creek Road. Helms lost control of his vehicle due to unknown reasons and crashed into a nearby hillside. He died at the scene from fatal injuries sustained from the crash. An autopsy done by Kern County Coroner’s Office found that Helms’ death was caused by damage done to his chest and neck area from impact during the crash.
Can Auto Insurance Coverage Deny Payout for Elderly Drivers?
Although auto insurance providers have been known to elderly drivers, this usually happens before an insurance contract is signed. If an auto insurance provider has already agreed to cover for an elderly driver, then they cannot deny payout if the circumstances of the crash are under policy coverage. After all, elderly drivers would already have to pay a higher premium than the rest of the population, due to the higher perceived risks.
