I-35 Texas Car Accident Involves a Cyclone and a Hawkeye Football Player

David Cato, 19 who plays defensive back for the Iowa Hawkeyes and Ter’ran Denton, (sic) 19 a defensive back from the Iowa State Cyclones were driving on I-35 south of Purcell at 10:00 a.m. on a Sunday when the car they were in rolled after coming in contact with a semi-truck. According to the news report the trooper has the 18-wheeler being nudged before rolling and striking the embankment on the west side of the Interstate Highway.

 

Both Cato and Denton were wearing seatbelts. Both required medical care and treatment. It appears the most seriously injured was Denton, the Iowa State Cyclone, who was transported to the Norman Regional Hospital for a head injury. There is no indication if he suffered from traumatic brain injury or how serious and extensive his head injury.

 

David Cato is listed on the Iowa Hawkeye Football team roster as a sophomore defensive back from Arlington, Texas. He is listed as second on the depth chart behind Sash.

FAQs

I-35 I-80 I-235 I-380 Collisions/Accidents

What should I do if an attorney is trying to overcharge me for an auto accident case? On July 2010 I was rear ended while on duty. That day I was transported to the hospital and scheduled a follow-up with the workers comp doctors. Upon several visits the doctor advised that neck and hip pain were pre-existing, so I decided to get a Lawyer. I went to Lawyer A, who has represented me up until Nov 2011. On November 19, I received an email from Lawyer A, who advised me the insurance company wants to settle my case for $12,500 with me receiving $5,000. I advised Lawyer A that price would not work, because I have been seeking treatments (message therapy, and acupuncture) using my personal insurance. I did not know when I was using my personal insurance, depending on how the treating doctor codes it, the insurance company can seek for me to pay them back in the future (information told to me by Lawyer A’s staff) . In addition, Lawyer A’s staff advised me to not go back to my worker’s comp doctor because my bill was too high, and for me to see a personal injury and car accident doctor. When I advised Lawyer A that did not want to settle my case with the insurance company for $12,500 with me receiving $5,000, Lawyer A offered me $6,000. I advised Lawyer A that price would not work as well and I would contact their office at a later date. I then found Lawyer B, explained the entire situation to them and signed an agreement with them and terminated Lawyer A due to me not being satisfied with the services they provided me throughout the entire time. Almost a month later Lawyer B contacted me advising me that I was untruthful and they are deciding to not take my case because per the insurance company Lawyer A settled my case for $12,500 on November 19th, and a check was already overnight to Lawyer A’s office. Now that was unbeknownst to me. I then contacted Lawyer A and their staff advised me the insurance company was in a rush and just mailed them a settlement check in attempts to clear their books before the end of the year.

Can I sue the policy holder for injuries or just the driver? I was in an accident and the other driver was at fault. He is a high school senior. The insurance policy is in a different name but same address. If the limits are low, can I sue the policy holder or just the driver? I was injured and have had two surgeries. The doctor says I will likely need more.

Do I have a case against the car manufacturer for airbags that did not deploy? I was in a accident where my vehicle was struck in the rear, my passenger side air bag deployed and the driver’s side air bag did not. I had nothing sitting in the seat on the passenger side of the vehicle. I was going 60 MPH when I was struck by a vehicle going 95+. My vehicle then struck the dividing barrier on the driver’s side. (Referring to 2nd generation air bags)
