Los Angeles, CA (Mar 18th, 2025)- A 13-year-old boy lost his life in a tragic pocket bike accident in Lancaster, California, on Sunday afternoon. The Los Angeles County Office of Medical Examiner identified the victim as Darrin Jackson, confirming his passing after a collision with a Subaru on Lancaster Boulevard.

Details of the Crash

The accident occurred at approximately 1:45 p.m. when Darrin was riding his pocket bike—a small, motorcycle-style vehicle designed primarily for recreational use—southbound on 32nd Street West. According to the Lancaster Sheriff’s Station, Darrin failed to stop at a stop sign before colliding with a Subaru traveling eastbound on Lancaster Boulevard.

Upon impact, Darrin was knocked off the pocket bike, suffering severe injuries. Emergency responders arrived quickly, but unfortunately, he did not survive. The driver of the Subaru remained at the scene and cooperated with authorities.

Ongoing Investigation

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has launched a full investigation into the crash. Detectives are working to determine whether speed, visibility, road conditions, or any other factors contributed to the tragic accident.

Authorities urge anyone with information regarding the collision to contact the Lancaster Sheriff’s Station’s traffic investigators at 661-948-8466.

Understanding Compensation for Accident Victims and Their Families

When a fatal accident occurs, the victim’s family may be entitled to compensation under California’s wrongful death laws. While no amount of money can replace the loss of a loved one, compensation can help ease the financial burden of:

  • Medical expenses incurred before death
  • Funeral and burial costs
  • Loss of companionship and emotional suffering
  • Loss of future financial support

In cases where negligence or liability plays a role—such as failure to yield, reckless driving, or hazardous road conditions—the family may file a wrongful death claim to seek justice. However, dealing with insurance companies and legal processes can be overwhelming, especially during such a difficult time.
