Coral Gables Road Hazards
Drivers know that in order to stay safe on the roads, they need to stay alert for unexpected road hazards. Some of these hazards – such as deer running across the road – may simply not be predictable. However, road hazards such as debris, potholes, and missing manhole covers are often preventable hazards and may point to negligence.

Road Hazards Lead to Serious Traffic Crashes in Coral GablesMany of us see potholes and other road dangers as simply part and parcel of driving. We may complain about the state or roads, but we don’t always think of the real dangers of debris on roadways, for example. The reality, however, is that road hazards can lead to serious car accidents and injuries such as:
- Burns
- Amputations
- Fractures and broken bones
- Disfigurement and facial injuries
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
- Paralysis
- Brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries and back injuries
- Seizure disorders
These injuries can cause severe pain and suffering as well as months or even a lifetime of recovery time.
Permanent Injuries After a Car Accident can Devastate Your LifePermanent injuries can result in devastation for entire families. These injuries can end up costing families tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or in some cases even millions of dollars over the lifetime of the patient. In many cases, households lose an income earner and face the emotional upheaval, upset, and fears that often come with a serious injury.
What can you do if you have been seriously injured in a traffic collision in Coral Gables or another South Florida community? After you have sought medical help and have reported the accident, you will want to contact a personal injury attorney.
