Vehicle #1 was southbound on County Road 5125 at a high rate of speed. Vehicle #1 attempted to manuever through a curve and lost control and ran off the road to the southeast, dropping the tires off the roadway on to a grass ditch; driving through 12 T fence posts.

The crash killed Ellis. Ellis was taken to Frontier Forensics First Call of Kansas City, Kansas.

Vehicle Damage

The police said the damage to the 2008 BMW 750 with Unknown license plate number 237KGJ was not stated. It may not have been insured. So a lawyer should conduct a full insurance investigation. It was removed from the crash scene by Rough Country Towing of Coffeyville, KS and taken to Tow Lot.

How To Get the Highway Patrol Report

The Kansas State Highway Patrol Trooper with badge number K322 wrote up the report. The highway patrol assigned case number 2017-015305 to this crash. The KSHP charges $5.00 for each copy of the report plus additional fees of $2.00 for each witness statement. But you can call 877-925-1969 to request a free copy of the report. In order to get the report through the KSHP website, you must create a Kansas.gov account and give them your credit card. You must agree to be subject to Kansas Statute 45-230: Unlawful Use of Names Derived from Public Records. This statute imposes on those subject to it "a civil penalty in an action brought by the attorney general or county or district attorney" of up to "$500 for each violation."

Insurance Claim

Ellis's family may have an insurance claim against or another insurance company. A lawyer will maximize the amount collected from the insurance companies. In most cases, family members can recover money for the loss of a loved one—even if a family member was driving. In Kansas, Personal Injury Protection (PIP or No-fault) pays medical and funeral expenses for the driver and the passengers killed in a crash. It does not matter who is at fault. Getting a lawyer working on this case early will increase the amount of money Ellis's family recovers for this wrongful death.
