Indiana Personal Injury and Wrongful Death Attorneys
Work crews begin to tackle construction projects each spring in force on streets and highways across Indiana. Their efforts extend throughout the summer and autumn months.
That extended period is one of heightened concern for motorists. Even normally quiet and seemingly safe roads can bring potential and actual dangers when distracted drivers enter zones without fully appreciating that things are not as they normally appear.
How many Americans use their mobile phones at least occasionally when behind the wheel and working their way through traffic?
Reportedly, close to 70 million of them.
Catalysts that directly contribute to serious injury outcomes in Indiana and nationally are hard to predict and prevent in any given case.
For starters, and as we note on our website at the experienced personal injury firm of Tabor Law in Indianapolis, "The causes of wrongful death are varied."
A recent national news report notes that many veteran truck drivers in Indiana and nationally will likely end up retiring before they see radical tech-related change occurring in their industry. Most of those individuals seem just fine with that.
In fact, many of them wouldn't want it any other way. Their comments clearly reflect widespread concerns about next-generation technologies linked with self-driving rigs.
If you're riding within three feet of a cyclist you now may be violating a new statute designed to make the roads safer for bicyclists in Ohio.

A new bill that would open interstate trucking opportunities to people between the ages of 18 and 21 was introduced in the House of Representatives March 21.
Many people in a state commonly called the Crossroads of America pay attention to safety-linked discussions concerning passenger transportation. Indiana is a national hub for all manner of traffic plying the state. That automatically puts a close focus on safety rules and measures that protect the general public.
That focus is obviously on cars and trucks, of course, but it also extends to trains. We note on our website at the established Indianapolis personal injury firm of Tabor Law train-linked concerns owing to "many prevalent railroads crisscrossing the state." Chief among them are deadly accidents deriving from the negligence of railroad principals, engineers, conductors and other parties.
One of the first things most people learn is to look both ways before crossing the street. It’s good, timeless advice, even in an era when children learn how to finger swipe a touch screen before they’ve been given freedom to cross the street on their own.
Looking before crossing, though, is a pedestrian precaution. When walkers and drivers interact, both parties need to be aware. Statistics for 2016 and 2017 show a measurable rise in pedestrian deaths.
The Indiana State Police is joining law-enforcement agencies across Indiana this March to increase dangerous and impaired driving patrols for the NCAA Tournament and St. Patrick's Day.
