Each year, a high number of backover accidents occur across the U.S., often resulting in serious injuries or death. Backover collisions occur when drivers reverse into nonoccupants, such as children playing, pedestrians, or bicyclists. According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, backing crashes cause an average of 13,000 injuries and 232 deaths annually.
Taking precautions regarding noise in the workplace may help workers prevent occupational hearing loss. One of the most common chronic physical conditions affecting adults in the U.S., hearing difficulties often result from work-related exposures. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that occupational causes account for approximately 24% of the hearing difficulty among the working population in the United States.
Unsafe floor cleaning practices may contribute to slip and fall accidents that cause serious injuries. Businesses throughout Nevada often contract services with companies to have their floors cleaned. If the business or cleaning service does not take the appropriate care, however, it may result in slips and falls. In fact, the Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that more than two million fall-related injuries each year occur as a direct result of floors and floor cleaning materials.
Most car accident cases reach settlements without going to court. Doing so can help injured victims avoid the unpredictability of a jury trial, receive compensation more quickly, save money on litigation costs, and achieve closure. While settling a personal injury claim out of court can be the quickest option, however, going to trial may be necessary in some cases.
