Teenagers feature prominently in many stories and examples of bad driving, and quite a few people have wondered, "Why are they so reckless?" Is it their parents? Is it the culture? Is it their brains?
Workers' compensation death benefits may aid surviving families
Most businesses in Pennsylvania implement safety precautions to decrease risk of injury for their employees. Unfortunately, accidents that result in serious injury or fatality sometimes happen in ways no one expects. Families of deceased victims may find legal recourse through the aid of experienced workers' compensation attorneys. A family in another state is likely looking into their options after a worker was killed on the job.
Pennsylvania car accidents are often caused by negligent drivers
Motor vehicle collisions can occur in any number of ways with any number of vehicles. Sometimes, car accidents may only involve one car at a time. Such is the case in a recent Pennsylvania crash that resulted in the injury of a man and the death of a woman.
Injured employees may benefit from workers' compensation claims
There are many ways an employee can become injured on the job. For construction workers, falls or equipment malfunctions are often factors, and for office workers, long-term injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome may arise. When injuries like these and others occur, employees may choose to seek workers' compensation benefits. One Pennsylvania man is likely looking into his options after an explosion at his workplace.
Bad weather may lead to more car accidents
When a driver agrees to transport a passenger, the driver then owes a duty of care to that person to keep the individual safe on the road. In addition to obeying laws and paying attention to traffic, drivers with passengers must also take weather factors into consideration to avoid car accidents. Sadly, one Pennsylvania woman was recently killed after the driver she was riding with crashed the car into a train during a snowstorm.
Workers' compensation could help injured transportation workers
Most professions, whether in Pennsylvania or elsewhere, contain some form of risk in the daily tasks. Some of these risks are negligible, although others may lead to serious injuries for those involved. When employees face injuries, they may choose to file for workers' compensation benefits to help deal with the impact. Two subway workers in another state may consider filing after recently being injured on the job.
