Woman Dies Following Auto Accident
In Arbroath, Scotland, a 78-year-old woman has died one month after sustaining severe injuries in an automobile collision. Agnes Ferrier had initially been listed in critical condition but had been recovering from her injuries following surgical procedures. Ferrier reportedly suffered a shattered pelvis and internal bleeding after being struck by a vehicle. Following surgery to repair the damage that was done, Ferrier was said to be in good condition and making a good recovery.
However, Ferrier’s health began to decline and she later died while in the hospital. Ferrier’s son has stated that he does not blame the care that the hospital provided for his mother’s death. Although authorities do not believe any foul play was involved in Ferrier’s injuries or her death, a report will still be filed regarding her death.
Although in this incident nobody was found at fault for the woman’s death, there are many other incidents where the care that an individual receives is not enough for them and they pass away as a result. It is unfortunate when a person loses their life as a result of an accident like this one. In some incidents, the vehicle that is struck does not always see the other vehicle approaching and is unable to move out of the way in time. In addition, speed may sometimes be a factor in accidents such as this one. There is no report on the factors that contributed to this accident.
