When you are driving around the city I am sure you have seen the billboards or maybe heard on the radio the Public Service Announcements about not texting and driving. Some people listen and some don’t but the announcements make an impact on most people and it is a general rule of thumb that it is not safe to text and drive.
Haire Law defends you if you were in a car accident
Car accidents are a part of life, but no matter the situation people are always pointing the finger in the other direction.
NHTS studies show that 80% of drivers believed that the other driver was at fault. With all this finger pointing, what can you do to protect yourself if you are involved in an accident? (more…)
Christmas is supposed to be a time for counting blessings, spending time with family, and giving to others, not a time for mourning. But because of tragedy, the latter is what happened at Texas A&M, Jacksonville and all over Texas this year. (more…)
Many truck accidents that occur on our highways happen due to the driver’s negligence and improper cargo loading and maintenance. While it’s impossible to avoid all accidents, many can be avoided because there are federal and state regulations governing trucks. Did you know that there are guidelines regarding lighting, signals, wiring, breaks, windows, fuel system, tires, emergency equipment and cargo security gear? If something goes wrong with any of these, you could get hurt or even killed at no fault of your own. It is important to be educated and know what evidence to look for will help your car accident lawyer determines if the failure to maintain a truck falls solely on the trucking company, trucker, mechanic, or all three in regards to your accident. The list below is common evidence, an experienced truck accident lawyer will look for to establish fault. (more…)
Let’s face it; driving is a big responsibility. Most people do not understand the fact that driving is considered a privilege by the states that issue our licenses. The police and the driving laws they enforce can only protect us so much. While driving a vehicle is hard enough to do with law abiding motorists, it is even harder to do with those who take this responsibility lightly. In 2008 over 10.2 million car accidents were reported, of those. 33% resulted in a fatality. While this number is relatively low, the numbers of fatalities from big rig accidents are much higher. That same year, of the 123,918 accidents reported, a staggering 3.9% resulted in death. With an estimated 15.5 million trucks licensed to drive in the U.S., our highways only seem to get more and more dangerous when traveling. Because most vehicles are at a disadvantage if they get into an accident with a big rig, listed below are questions you should ask to know if you need a lawyer because of wrongful death.
A controversy of speed limits recently hit the Texas court system. While Texas lawmakers put forth effort to increase speed limits on future highways, others claim that the rise in speed will concurrently raise accident and fatality rates. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, traffic deaths dropped in 2010 and are averaging a record low since 1949. If the traffic deaths are dropping, people are curious to know what will happen when the speed starts increasing. (more…)
Trauma to the head or neck region can cause sub dermal hematoma, closed head injury or concussion, hemorrhaging, intracranial pressure and swelling leading to global hypoxia, anoxic brain injury or hypoxic brain injury, and other forms of minor and significant brain damage.
