Seattle Man Killed In One-Vehicle Maserati Sports Car Crash


Posted on Jan 14, 2012

A father and son were involved in a one-car accident on Ponus Ridge Road in New Canaan, Connecticut on Thursday night, December 22. According to local police, 74-year-old Washington resident, James Jackson Savage, died in the car accident while his son, 37-year-old Michael Savage was arrested at a hospital the following morning.

The fatal car accident took place at around 10:30 p.m., when the son lost control of the 1999 Maserati sports car and ran off of the road. According to witnesses, Michael Savage then fled from the scene of the accident on foot, leaving his severely injured father trapped in the car. James Jackson Savage died at the scene.

Michael Savage was tracked down by authorities the following morning at a local hospital where he was being treated for serious injuries. He was charged with fleeing the scene of an accident.

Ponus Ridge Road has been the scene of a dozen serious car accidents in recent years, including two fatal crashes in the last year alone. Authorities say that segments of the road are windy, dark, narrow, and windy – but that many of the most severe accidents on the road involved speeding, reckless driving, and driving under the influence of alcohol.

The most recent fatal car accident is under investigation and police have not released information on what may have caused the crash. The Washington car accident attorneys at the Andrew Kim Law Firm send their condolences to the accident victim’s loved ones.
