Common Leg Injuries in Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle riders are completely exposed on the roadway, without the protections an enclosed vehicle can provide. They are vulnerable to a range of injuries to every part of the body, including the head, face, chest, abdomen, spine, hands, wrists, and arms. The most frequently injured area in motorcycle crashes is the lower extremities, as found in a study conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Spotting Infections Caused by Road Rash
Road rash is a painful but common injury in motorcycle and bicycle accidents, occurring when a rider falls and slides across pavement or dirt. Even with protective gear, the skin can be scraped off, leaving the area raw, red, inflamed, and bleeding. As road rash breaks the protective barrier of the skin, it can also turn into a serious, or even life-threatening, infection.

Steps in a Birth Injury Claim
Birth injuries can have devastating consequences on children and their families. If your child has suffered a serious birth injury due to a medical mistake, you have a right to seek compensation for your losses. But first, you will need to determine how medical negligence caused your child’s injury and prepare certain evidence to support your claim. Below is a summary of what you need to know before filing a birth injury claim in Georgia.
The Dangers of Chemical Exposure at a Pool
The last thing most people would worry about in a swimming pool is being burned. But these places of relaxation and fun need constant upkeep from property owners to maintain safe water conditions. Mixing chemicals incorrectly or adding too much can put swimmers at serious risk of suffering chemical burns.
The History of Deadly Auto Defects in America
Hidden defects have caused serious and fatal automobile accidents over the decades. Statistically, there is a greater likelihood of a defect being in a vehicle than most people know, as manufacturers intentionally keep these issues as quiet as possible. By the time some auto defects became widely publicized, too many people had already died or been seriously injured. Below are some of the deadliest auto defects in American history.
How to Spot Internal Bleeding
After an accident, you may be mostly concerned with your obvious, external injuries. That’s understandable, as a nasty cut or broken bone is enough to make anyone panic. However, the real danger may lie in a wound that is practically invisible: internal bleeding.
The Relationship Between Falls and TBIs
Slip-and-falls are almost always caused by negligence. Whether a public walkway hasn’t been cleared of ice, or a wet-floor sign wasn’t put down in a grocery store after an employee mopped, slip-and-falls are often not the fault of the victim.
