A two-vehicle accident in Ontario left one teenager dead and two other people injured on Oct. 26, according to authorities. The crash in Ontario occurred at about 11:30 p.m. near Drayton, where a 2001 Audi with a 17-year-old driver collided with a 2008 Toyota driven by an 18-year-old woman.

The Audi was traveling in the westbound lane of Concession 8 when it collided with the Toyota, which was headed north on Side Road 15, authorities stated. The vehicles left the roadway as a result of the collision. The Audi struck a hydro pole, causing some wires to collapse onto the road, reportedly.

Following the collision, a helicopter crew airlifted the 17-year-old driver to a Toronto hospital, where he died on Oct. 28 as a result of his injuries. A 15-year-old passenger from the Toyota suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries in the crash, authorities said. He was also airlifted to a Toronto hospital. The 18-year-old woman suffered non-life-threatening injuries and received treatment at a local hospital. According to law enforcement officials, the accident remains under investigation.

Following a car accident resulting in injuries or death, such as this one, accident investigators typically attempt to compile and analyze evidence in an effort to ascertain what caused the wreck and who, if anyone, was at fault. These investigations may take days or weeks to complete. However, evidence yielded and conclusions drawn in these investigations may be of particular importance to people who suffered damages in the accident and who, consequently, wish to pursue civil action.

A personal injury lawyer representing accident victims may review accident investigation reports and help file suit against the party at fault for the crash. In this way, injured victims may seek to hold reckless and negligent drivers accountable for the accident.
