On Thursday, June 19, 2025, at around 12:04 PM, Anderson County emergency services responded to a single‑vehicle crash at Fairplay Road and Ramage Road in Townville, SC. The Anderson County Coroner’s Office confirmed the driver, Jeremy Randall Bryant, a 46‑year‑old man from Seneca, died on impact after his vehicle struck a tree. Preliminary findings suggest that excessive speed was a contributing factor, and the death was ruled accidental.
Emergency responders from the South Carolina Highway Patrol and local authorities are conducting a full investigation into any further contributing factors or potential vehicle issues .
Even though this was a single‑vehicle crash, key factors can influence whether there is liability or eligibility for claims:
Driver behavior: Speeding that leads to a fatal outcome may be considered negligence in insurance or wrongful death claims.
Road conditions: If poor signage, lighting, or road maintenance contributed, it may open questions of third‑party liability.
Vehicle defects: Mechanical failures (like tires, brakes) could give rise to claims against manufacturers or repair shops.
Survivability and liability: In South Carolina, families may file wrongful death claims even in accidental cases, especially to challenge insurance denials or investigate causes.
For families or loved ones in similar circumstances:
Request official reports: Obtain the crash report and autopsy from the coroner or law enforcement.
Preserve evidence: If the vehicle is still available, don’t dispose of it. It may hold vital clues.
Act quickly: South Carolina has strict deadlines (statutes of limitations) for filing claims.
Consult expert help: A personal injury or wrongful death attorney can advise on whether liability extends beyond the driver.
Watch for road hazards, like poor signage, curves, or narrow shoulders.
Maintain your vehicle regularly like brakes, tires, and steering are critical safety components.
If you feel drowsy or unwell, pull over safely—momentary lapses behind the wheel can be fatal.
