Snow Removal Equipment Accidents

Snow removal is essential for safety and the equipment necessary to provide this is, by nature, large, heavy, slow-moving, and used under adverse weather conditions at all hours of the day and night. Snow removal equipment operators have a duty to ensure that they understand how to properly use their vehicles and that those vehicles are in good, working order to prevent accidents, many of which are serious, and sometimes fatal.

Causes of Snow Removal Equipment Accidents 

Snow removal equipment operators are similar to drivers of other commercial equipment, they are required to be thoroughly trained on how to operate and maintain the vehicle they are driving, as well as being routinely tested for drug and alcohol use and fully rested when behind the wheel. Unfortunately, to save time and money, some companies may try to cut corners and place drivers behind the wheel who are not familiar with this type of equipment, putting the driver and others at risk. Companies may also hire third-party contractors to complete this work, many of which are not regulated.

When a snow removal equipment accident occurs, the results can be devastating. In the event of a snow removal equipment accident, the injured party may have the ability to file a claim against the driver, their employer, and/or the product designer/manufacturer in the event that the equipment was defective. A personal injury lawyer can review your case and determine who may be liable for any injuries or damages that were sustained.

If you or a loved one has suffered injuries due to negligence on the job site or a defective product, an experienced personal injury lawyer can review your claim and determine if there were unsafe working conditions, potential OSHA violations, and other hazards that may have existed at the time of your accident. They will also determine who may be liable for your injuries and damages and what compensation you may be entitled to.
