ATV Rollover Accident Overview
ATV is an acronym for “All Terrain Vehicle”. In the United States, ATVs are commonly used for recreational purposes on ranches, and for work purposes on farms. These vehicles can be a lot of fun and also be quite helpful when used correctly by drivers. However, when drivers are not careful, the ATV can rollover. ATV rollovers are responsible for numerous bodily injuries and deaths each and every year. And, while many ATV rollovers result from operator negligence, some rollovers have been found to have resulted from ATV designer or manufacturer defects.
If a person has been a victim of an ATV rollover, and he/she believes the rollover was caused by designer or manufacturer defects, it is usually a wise idea for the person to seek immediate legal counsel from a credible motor vehicle accident attorney. A motor vehicle accident lawyer will have the experience, investigative resources, and knowledge it takes to discover ATV designer or manufacturer defects, and to prove negligence.
ATV Rollover Accidents & Personal Injury Law
In the state of Florida, a person must have sustained serious physical injuries, received medical treatment, and have incurred substantial medical expenses before he/she can file a personal injury lawsuit. Additionally, a person must be able to prove that his/her injuries resulted from third party negligence. According to the law, negligence is a person’s failure to act the way a normal person would act in any given situation. Negligence is also the failure to exercise the amount of caution any other person would exercise in a similar situation.
If a person is able to prove that he/she was injured while involved in an ATV rollover accident, and that the accident and injuries resulted from designer or manufacturer negligence, he/she may be able to collect monetary damages for his/her: medical expenses, injuries, property damage, lost earning potential, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
