The crash occurred on Wednesday, March 26, 2025 at 15:00 at this location: K23 Highway at Road 70 South, or 6.5 miles south of US-24 Highway.

The first vehicle, a flatbed style truck-tractor hauling an oil derrick, was driven by Shawn P. Kinder and was heading southbound on K23 Highway. There are power lines in the air supported by power poles along the north side of Road 70 South. While Kinder was attempting to make a right-hand turn to enter a ditch for more clearance, the oil derrick came into contact with the live power lines. This resulted in Kinder being ejected from the vehicle. Shortly after, a pedestrian was able to get into the vehicle and apply the parking brake.

Insurance Claim

Shawn P. Kinder may have an insurance claim for his injuries. The police said there was none. A lawyer may be able to recover money for clients even when there is no insurance. A lawyer will maximize the amount collected from the insurance company. In most cases, injured people can recover money for their medical bills, lost wages, and for their pain and suffering—even if a family member was driving. Getting a lawyer working on this case early will allow Shawn to receive advice about preserving and gathering evidence and the value of the claim, which will help with his recovery. If you hire a lawyer that focuses their practice on serious personal-injury and death cases in Kansas, you may be able to obtain compensation from a government fund set up for those that are injured or killed if there is not enough insurance to cover all their damages. Due to low insurance coverage requirements in many states, this is nearly every case. For more information call or text Lawyer Burt True at 888-878-8783 .

Large national insurance companies wield immense financial power and political influence, making them formidable forces not only in the insurance industry but also in public policy. Their extensive lobbying efforts have shaped laws and regulations in ways that often benefit their bottom line, frequently at the expense of consumers. These corporations prioritize minimizing payouts to maximize profits, employing vast resources to delay or deny claims, even in cases involving vulnerable individuals like children injured by negligent or drunk drivers.

It’s not unreasonable to suspect that these same companies may have influenced the Kansas Highway Patrol’s policies that make it harder for victims and their families to access critical information. By making it harder for victims and their families to access critical information, these policies create obstacles to accountability and shield the insurers of negligent drivers from public scrutiny. This lack of transparency benefits insurance companies by delaying or reducing payouts, leaving innocent people—especially those suffering catastrophic injuries—without the timely support and justice they deserve. Such actions deepen the imbalance of power between these corporate giants and the individuals they are supposed to protect, eroding trust in both the legal and insurance systems.
