Elderly Drivers and Florida Car Accidents

Published on: June 30, 2023 | By Flaxman Law Group

In many ways, elderly drivers can be among the safer motorists on Florida roads. They have more experience behind the wheel, for example, and are statistically less likely to engage in risk-taking behaviors. This can make them less likely to be in Florida traffic crashes.

At the same time, elderly drivers do face additional challenges that can affect their ability to drive. Unless these factors are addressed, some senior drivers may have an increased risk of Florida car collisions.

Amputations and Florida Car Accidents

Published on: June 14, 2023 | By Flaxman Law Group

Amputation is the surgical removal of a body part that is damaged beyond repair. Car accidents are a common cause of amputations, because they can cause devastating injuries where a leg, arm, hand, or other body part just can’t be saved. Crushing injuries can lead to amputations in this situation, with some car accident victims needing to have an amputation at the scene to remove them from the car. In less common cases, the impact of a crash can sever a limb or body part.

While amputations can save a person’s life after a car accident, they also affect a person’s physical, emotional, and financial well-being. Amputees may face challenges such as chronic pain, phantom limb syndrome, infection, prosthetic fitting, mobility issues, psychological distress, social stigma, and reduced quality of life.
