Saturday night collision occurred on Fashion Island Boulevard
SAN MATEO, CA, (February 08, 2025) - Mark Kremer, a San Mateo native, has been identified as the victim of a hit-and-run accident.
Mark Kremer lost his life on Saturday night when he was struck by a hit-and-run driver along Fashion Island Boulevard in San Mateo.
The 56-year-old pedestrian was struck and killed by a vehicle on Fashion Island Boulevard in San Mateo around 9 p.m. on Saturday.
The San Mateo Police Department stated that the investigation is ongoing, and no official details have been released yet, including whether a suspect has been identified.
FATAL ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION
In most cases involving hit-and-runs, the at-fault drivers feel they can avoid the consequences of their actions if they leave the scene. However, a suspect will face charges when apprehended.
Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime, but sadly statistics indicate that more than one hit-and-run crash occurs every minute on U.S. roads.
Candice Bond, an experienced hit-and-run accident attorney, said in such cases is imperative to have an independent investigation conducted by a seasoned attorney promptly to protect the rights of a victim.
“Having the proper resources is extremely important to investigate a hit-and-run accident case and prove negligence,” said Bond, a Managing Partner of Bond Legal.
“Road conditions, visibility, and lighting are all possible contributing factors considered and examined,” said Bond.
These procedures are necessary for helping someone who has lost a loved one at the hands of a hit-and-run driver receive the justice and monetary compensation they deserve.
WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM
Pending the investigation, the family of Mark Kremer may be entitled to a wrongful death claim for funeral expenses, the loss of love and companionship, pain and suffering, and emotional trauma.
“An incident is considered a wrongful death when either a person or entity commits a wrongful or negligent act resulting in death,” said Bond. “When vehicle accident fatalities result from unsafe driving, aggressive or distracted driving, speeding, or driving under the influence, family members are usually left with the option to pursue a civil action against the responsible motorist.”
