Tristan Palmer, 25, of Lawrence was killed in a deadly accident this past Saturday morning in Methuen on Route 213. The Eagle Tribune reports that at about 12:30am, Palmer lost control of his Saturn Ion as he was heading onto the I-495 ramp from Route 213 and collided with a guardrail, sending his car down an embankment and landing with the nose of the vehicle propped on the ground and the Saturn’s roof against a tree.
First responders to the deadly accident transported Palmer to a local hospital before taking him by helicopter to a Boston hospital.

How Many Massachusetts Motorists Are Not Wearing Seatbelts?
Car crashes are the leading cause of death among teenagers ages 15-19 and fatal injuries from crashes are the second most common cause of death among children who are ages 5-14. Just over 20% of all fatalities resulting from car crashes in the U.S. were children, ranging in ages from newborn to 19, according to the World Health Organization. The truth is, is that seat belts can help save lives, especially among children and adolescents, if used properly. Many child safety seats and booster seats are not installed or even used correctly, which is why parents must ensure that the seats and buckles are set up right the first time. Kids younger than 12 should always ride in the back seat for their safety, in the event airbags deployed in an accident. Try to enforce a rule about not moving or even starting the car until everyone is buckled in safely.
In Massachusetts, it has been estimated that 30% of individuals in the Commonwealth do not buckle up when they get behind the wheel as a driver or even as a passenger, despite regular ad campaigns that raise awareness for both the legal and deadly consequences. Teenage drivers are unfortunately renowned for not wearing seat belts, which all too often can end in tragedy for all involved. Putting your seat belt on is simple but its effects can be the difference between life and death. Seat belts prevent drivers and passengers from being ejected out of the vehicle and keep the body as restrained as possible, with specific protection focused on the person’s neck, head, and spine.

State Trooper Hurt in I-93 Crash in Quincy
Brian Berry, 43, a Massachusetts State Trooper, was hurt in a crash that was reportedly caused by a drunk driver early Sunday morning on I-93 in Quincy, according to The Boston Globe.

Three Massachusetts Men Die in Friday’s Fatal Lynnfield, Marlborough Accidents
Victor Vargas, 42, of Lynn was killed this past Friday night in Lynnfield in the breakdown lane of Route 1 after he was hit by an SUV operated by William Halpin III, 25, of Melrose. Vargas had been in the breakdown lane after his taxi was involved in a fender-bender with a Chevy Cobalt in front of him. He and the driver of the Cobalt had been exchanging information when Halpin, who was allegedly under the influence of drugs at the time of the crash, struck Vargas and then collided with the Cobalt, causing injury to a 6-year-old boy who was seated in the Cobalt. The boy sustained serious injuries to his arm and shoulder and was rushed to a Boston area hospital. According to The Boston Globe, Halpin had tossed marijuana from his SUV, but the drugs were later recovered at the scene of the deadly Massachusetts crash by police. Halpin entered a not guilty plea today in Peabody District Court in answer to a charge of motor vehicle homicide while operating under the influence of drugs. He is currently held on $25,000 bail.
Earlier on Friday, Adam Richard, 34, of Hudson and Michael Kaminski, 60, of Oxford died in a 4-car accident in Marlborough on Route 85, according to MassLive.

MBTA Train Hit, Killed Unnamed Man in Gloucester
An unnamed man was struck and killed by an MBTA commuter line train Wednesday evening around 7:30pm as the train went through Babson Reservoir in Gloucester, according to an article in The Gloucester Times. Officials were unable to properly identify the man’s body following the accident but are currently working on determining the victim’s identification. If authorities investigating the tragic crash discover that the accident was the result of a train operator's negligence, the victim’s family could pursue a wrongful death lawsuit.
Police investigating the case were at the accident scene for over three hours last night. The passengers on the commuter train that struck the man were taken by bus to Rockport and passengers who were expecting later trains were also shuttled by bus from the Gloucester station to Rockport directly.
