Liability for Howell Car Accidents
Accidents where vehicles drive into storefronts may seem like freak occurrences. But these events are actually quite common. According to ASIS International, “every year in the United States up to 2,600 people are killed when a vehicle crashes into a building. These collisions also result in up to 16,000 people suffering injuries.” Businesses can take several steps to prevent these types of accidents.
- Businesses can install bollard posts in the front of their stores.
- Businesses can remove parking spots that would align directly with the entrance of their store.
- Businesses can conduct a storefront crash risk assessment.
Drivers have a legal obligation to use caution to prevent collisions. If a driver mistakes the gas pedal for the brakes and drives into a store, they can be held at fault for the crash. The owner of a business could also bear some liability for a storefront collision. For example, this type of accident may have been foreseeable if similar incidents occurred at the same location in the past. Any person injured in a storefront collision may be able to seek some measure of justice through a personal injury claim.
