Pediatrician tragically falls to his death after accidentally tumbling from the door of a moving caravan

One of Long Island’s top doctors, Dr. Monika Woroniecka, tragically lost her life when she was flung out of a trailer that her husband was driving on a road trip

A respected children’s tragically lost her life in a freak accident during a family road trip when she fell out of a moving caravan onto a road.

Dr Monika Woroniecka, a 58-year-old mother and children’s allergy and immunology specialist on Long Island, New York, US, was traveling in the 2024 silver trailer with her family when she tumbled through the door, landing on the concrete below, according to police and family statements. 

At the time of the incident, Woroniecka’s husband, Robert, 59, was driving the pick-up truck that was towing the caravan. 

Eyewitnesses to the horrifying event reported that the passenger-side door of the Airstream trailer swung open due to wind force while Dr Woroniecka was holding onto its handle, causing her to fall onto the highway shoulder and suffer a fatal head injury, police said.

Emergency services rushed her to hospital, where she was sadly pronounced dead. The tragic accident occurred as Woroniecka and her relatives were nearing the end of their road trip, according to state troopers.
