Ryan Dunn, one of the pranksters who appeared in all of the “Jackass” movies, died in a horrific, fiery crash in his sports car along with a passenger on Monday, June 20.
Speeding and drunk driving are common causes of fatal car accidents, said Philadelphia personal injury lawyer Randall C. Flager, managing partner of Flager & Yockey, P.C.
Police said in an initial report that “speed may have been a contributing factor to the accident,” which also lead to the death of passenger Zachary D. Hartwell, of West Chester, Pa. Authorities later determined he was driving his 2007 Porsche 911 GT3 at more than 130 mph was driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol.
