One Trucker, 2 Awful Crashes
By: Rudy Larini
"The truck driver involved in the crash that killed four people last week on the
New Jersey Turnpike in Bergen County had been involved in a serious crash on
Route 78 in Union County almost exactly four years earlier.
In the August 2002 incident, Long Island resident Dimitrios Tseperkas was
driving a tractor-trailer that struck a car on westbound Route 78 in Union
Township. The car's driver, Claude Coleman, 33, of New Hope, Pa., was severely
injured. Tseperkas was cited for careless driving, and according to court papers
Coleman settled a lawsuit earlier this year for $850,000.
Nine days ago on the Turnpike, Tseperkas' tractor-trailer struck a car, which
was propelled under another truck and crushed. Charles and Theresa Christmas and
their 2-year-old daughter, Victoria, of Queens were killed, as was Norma Ryan,
37, of Voorhees. Four others were injured.
Samuel Davis, the lawyer representing the surviving daughter in the Christmas
family, 4-year-old Theresa, said he finds the two accidents "eerily similar" and
plans to use the earlier collision in litigation he intends to file against the
trucker."
