Police say one woman is dead and three others were injured following a car and ambulance collision in Rochester Thursday morning.

The crash happened around 1:30 AM at Central Park and North Goodman Street. Police say that the AMR ambulance was responding to a call when the car failed to yield, ran a flashing red traffic light, and ultimately crashed into the ambulance.

Three people were in the car at the time of the accident, including a 23-year-old woman who was pronounced dead at the scene and the front seat passenger who was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The 19-year-old driver of the vehicle was charged with driving while intoxicated and second-degree vehicular manslaughter. She was taken into custody shortly after being discharged from the hospital for injuries sustained during the crash.

Two EMS workers were also injured during the crash. They were taken to the hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries. They are both expected to make a full recovery.

  • Choosing the right attorney to represent you after an accident can make all the difference. This is no cliche. I recently experienced these words to live by first hand. After a tractor trailer rear ended me at high speed in 2017 I retained Allan Silverstein to handle my case. I quickly realized that bringing a lawsuit rapidly snowballs into a mountain of details that can make or break your results. Documents, case histories, doctor visits, bills, and lots of phone calls all need to be accurately kept track of if a successful outcome it to be attained. To complicate matters I reside in New York and the incident took place in New Jersey. Luckily, Allan was licensed in multiple states. I was fortunate to find Allan to handle this matter from the New York area. Armed with an accurate account of the facts Allan went to work on the difficult job of negotiating with the defending insurance company as well as my no fault carrier in order to obtain the best possible outcome for my set of circumstances. In a lawsuit communication is key and and events can be of a timely nature. Allan never failed to return my calls - usually the same day! He fought skillfully and respectfully to get me the best possible settlement. He is easy to deal with and a likeable down to earth guy. He always listened with compassion and respect to my issues. He guided me with objective understanding as well as a realistic analysis of the merits of my case. When we finally settled Allan got me a fair agreement beyond my expectations and negotiated with my doctors to make sure all my bills were paid. It was a great experience having Allan represent me. Quality work in any aspect of life is hard to find. Quality is what I got with Allan Silverstein. I highly recommend him if you find yourself in need of a personal injury attorney.
