If you are in a car accident, one way the defense will defend their case, is to refute how injured you are. That probably comes as no surprise to you. What may surprise you, is how they try to prove that you weren’t injured, because it has nothing to do with your body or the condition of your body. Rather, it has to do with your car and the damage that it sustained.

When a car hits a pedestrian, it is only natural to make the assumption that it is the vehicle that is at fault. After all, cars are bigger than people, and should look out for pedestrians. So when people (pedestrians) are hit, the cars are almost always assumed to be at fault.But that’s actually not how it happens, in a real pedestrian accident case. In fact, cases where people are hit by cars can be very difficult for the injured pedestrian to win, and a number of factors make these cases more complex than you may initially think.

If you are in an accident, you are a victim. And as a victim, it is hard to imagine that you could be blamed for the accident, or for your own injuries. But that’s exactly what many defendants do in personal injury cases. Not only do they blame the victim for causing the accident, in full or in part, but they are legally allowed to do so—and if a jury believes the Defendant enough, it could forever bar you from recovering damages in your accident.

CTE is a brain condition caused by repeated head injuries and blows to the head, and it can not only lead to severe mental and emotional issues, but dementia as well.However, what many likely do not realize is that a number of sports involve dangerous brain injuries that can ultimately lead to CTE, including and specifically, rugby: A recent study of former rugby players’ brains revealed that 21 out of 31 specimens studied (or approximately two-thirds) displayed evidence of a condition related to repeated concussion and head injuries, and those who played the sport longer were more likely to develop a degenerative brain disease. The results support a general call for all contact sports, such as boxing, football, and rugby, to protect players by reducing head impacts.

Popular restaurant chain Panera Bread is now facing a wrongful death lawsuit after one woman allegedly died from drinking its highly caffeinated lemonade drink. The chain has since released a warning to customers, informing them that each of these drinks contains about as much caffeine as a cup of the company’s dark roast coffee, and therefore, the drink should be used in moderation, and avoided by children.Still, many – including the family of the deceased victim – have pointed out that this warning comes far too late as, while the “charged lemonades” are now being marketed as plant-based “clean caffeine” instant energy drinks that contain both green tea and guarana extracts, it was not advertised as a caffeinated energy drink at all at the time the victim purchased and drank the lemonade.

Temperatures here in Las Vegas reached 112 degrees Fahrenheit (F) this summer, however, even on a 98F day, sustained contact with the sidewalk can not only result in third degree burns, but even kill someone.This summer approached a record from the recent high in 2020 – another year of harsh heat waves. In fact, one person in Las Vegas for example suffered third-degree burns in July after sitting on the pavement in jeans for 40 minutes while waiting for the bus. In addition, there are a number of milder burns that occur each year as well.

n late September, Generac Power Systems announced that it is recalling approximately 64,000 of its GP15000E and GP17500E generators that have the ability to malfunction and injure people, where these defects have resulted in at least three severe burn injuries and close to 30 reported incidents of overheating and pressurizing or expelling fuel when opened. Specifically, the defect lies in the generators’ fuel tank reportedly failing to vent adequately from the rollover valve in some circumstances, resulting in excess pressure building up in the gas tank and fuel being expelled when opened, resulting in fire and burn hazards. Generac has also, in the last few months, agreed to pay a close to $16 million civil penalty for failing to immediately report a separate defect issue that involved the ability for its portable generator models to crush or partially amputate users’ fingers to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

These accidents can lead to devastating injuries, including traumatic brain injuries, serious head and neck injuries, PTSD, and even death for those in the compact cars due to the vehicles’ relative height differences and the point of impact failing to engage certain safety features on compact cars, such as the airbags. It is rare for minor injuries to occur as a result of underride crashes; Many end up having to go on disability after these accidents; and file lawsuits not only against the driver, but the delivery company, and other companies involved, such as Amazon.
