Ventura County Man Seriously Injured in Thousand Oaks Motorcycle Accident

On Monday, February 2, 2009, a Thousand Oaks motorcycle accident seriously injured Ventura County resident, Ambrosio Rodriguez. Mr. Rodriquez was taken to the hospital for his injuries after a Buick driven by Denis Liu pulled out from a parking in front of Rodriguez's motocycle while Rodriguez was driving eastbound on Hillcrest Drive near Boardwalk Avenue.

The impact was so severe that it caused the Buick to overturn and come to rest on its' side. It is very fortunate that Ambrosio Rodriguez was not fatally injured in the accident.

According to the newspaper story, the motorcycle accident happened when Liu drove his Buick out of the parking lot and onto Hillcrest Drive without looking for oncoming traffic. This is a fairly frequent occurrence, but particularly with motorcycles and bicycles who are more difficult to see than cars. It appears that Liu was negligent and should be held responsible for compensating Ambrosio Rodriguez for his injuries.

Our office hope and pray that Mr. Rodriguez fully recovers from his injuries.
