Miami Road Shoulder Car Accidents Attorney

Turn to this Miami road shoulder car accident attorney if you’ve been injured on the side of a roadway anywhere in the State of Florida. Unfortunately, in the State of Florida, road shoulder accidents happen all of the time. And, when they occur, they can be devastating.

People could be located on the side of the road for different reasons. For example, they may be outside of the vehicle on foot, or unbuckled inside of the car at the time of the accident. Alternatively, they might be walking down the side of the road. Road shoulder crashes can have catastrophic consequences. They can take place on freeways, highways or thruways or on smaller roads. These accidents can be upsetting for victims because they can cause catastrophic injuries or in some cases even death.

People located in broken-down vehicles might also sit in road shoulders. When passing vehicles negligently leave the road and drive into the shoulder, they might contact a broken-down vehicle and cause catastrophic consequences.

If you’ve been injured in a road shoulder accident caused by someone else’s negligence anywhere in the State of Florida (including Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County or South Florida), you may be able to receive compensation for your losses through the legal process and for that contact this Miami Road Shoulder Car Accident Law Firm for a free, no-obligation consultation by calling 954-448-7288.

Pedestrians also often walk on sidewalks. In cases where a pedestrian is struck by a vehicle, the victim is likely to suffer severe, life-threatening injuries. Pedestrians who are struck by passing vehicles could potentially experience a traumatic brain injury such as a severe concussion.

Another common type of injury is a back or spinal cord injury that leaves the victim paralyzed. These types of injuries may involve long recovery times, with the victim being unable to work. Vehicles that drive off of roadways and hit pedestrians on sidewalks will obviously be liable for any injuries or death caused.

Lastly, over-tired drivers driving off of roadways could drive into road shoulders, hitting vehicles and pedestrians and causing injuries. Frequently, truck drivers will drive overtired, fall asleep and drive off of roadways. Most trucking companies require that truck drivers sleep a certain number of hours for certain distances traveled. But, this does not always occur, and truck drivers can become over-tired, drive off of roadways and impact pedestrians and other vehicles as a result.

Vehicles might also leave roadways and drive into “swales” and cause severe injuries to people located there.

Frequently, faulty roadway construction can also cause road shoulder accidents. That is, oftentimes roadways are designed with inadequate/hazardously small shoulders or road shoulders that aren’t accurately divided from the roadways. These faulty set-ups could potentially cause a passing vehicle to hit a pedestrian or vehicle located on the road shoulder.

If someone dies in a road shoulder wreck, an estate will be set up on his or her behalf. A loved one will usually be appointed to act as the personal representative of the estate and carry the case forward.
