People in Nevada who are injured by motorized shopping carts in grocery and retail stores might be able to recover damages from the stores under a legal principle called premises liability. Store owners owe a duty to keep their premises relatively safe and hazard free for their customers. If they know or should have known of a dangerous condition, it is their responsibility to fix it or to remove it. In the case of scooters, showing that the store owners had knowledge of previous scooter accidents in their chains might be enough to prove their negligence. For example, evidence of prior motorized shopping cart accidents that happened at the same store may be enough to demonstrate the store owner’s knowledge of the dangers and the negligence of failing to correct the hazards.
