Studio City, CA - Student Killed After Vehicle Collision in School Parking Lot

Studio City, CA - Student Killed After Vehicle Collision in School Parking Lot

Studio City, CA (June 4, 2025) – A student died in a vehicle collision in a school's Studio City parking lot just before 3:10 p.m. on Wednesday, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The Los Angeles Police Department said the 15-year-old student was walking between two cars in the pickup waiting zone when a Rivian drove forward and pinned him between the vehicles. The victim and his uninjured father were taken to a nearby hospital, where the teen later died.

The crash caused a chain reaction that forced other vehicles to collide. Firefighters treated five other victims, two minors and three adults, at the scene for minor injuries. Detectives are trying to determine what caused the Rivian driver to move forward. However, they are considering the collision an accident and have not arrested anyone.

We offer our deepest condolences to the deceased victim's loved ones.

Pedestrian Accidents in California

Speeding, driver distraction, and failure to yield routinely turn California’s intersections into dangerous places for pedestrians. Even though state law grants those on foot the right-of-way in marked or unmarked crosswalks, many motorists misjudge stopping distance or glance at a phone, leaving walkers no time to react. The result is often catastrophic, sometimes fatal.

Injured pedestrians and grieving families can file personal-injury or wrongful-death claims to recover hospital bills, rehabilitation costs, lost earnings, and harder-to-measure losses such as emotional distress and diminished quality of life. Because California applies pure comparative negligence, compensation remains available even when the pedestrian bears some fault; that percentage simply reduces any award. Most claims must be filed within two years of the crash, so waiting too long can forfeit vital rights.

An attorney experienced in pedestrian-injury litigation can shift the burden away from victims by securing traffic-camera footage, interviewing witnesses, working with reconstruction specialists, and documenting long-term care needs before negotiations begin. Countrywide Trial Lawyers manages each of these tasks, allowing clients to concentrate on healing while we pursue every avenue for the financial recovery needed to rebuild after a devastating street-corner collision.
