CLYMER – Two Chautauqua County men were taken to the hospital following a scooter crash on Ravlin Hill Road in the Town of Clymer on Saturday evening.

The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office reports the Clymer and Sherman Fire Departments responded to a motor vehicle crash with injury just after 5 p.m.

Through investigation, deputies say 31-year-old Justin Teed struck 19-year-old James Troyer who was traveling eastbound in the roadway on a scooter.

Crashes where a vehicle strikes someone traveling in the roadway often raise questions about fault, medical bills and lost wages that outlast the initial police report. People hurt in automobile collisions sometimes consult a firm like Hoffman, Sternberg, Karpf & Lynch, LLC, which handles car and truck accident claims. In cases like this one, an injured rider might seek compensation for ambulance transport, hospital treatment and any time missed from work while recovering.

Deputies say Troyer was transported by ambulance to Hamot Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, while Teed was taken to UPMC Chautauqua Hospital with minor injuries.

The Sheriff’s Office says no charges are pending at this time.
