A nontraffic accident is a type of accident that occurs off the road. It could be in a parking lot, a driveway, or any other location that is not considered a public road. In such cases, the injuries sustained can be just as severe as those that occur on the road.
Recently, a driver of a bus was injured in a nontraffic accident when the bus collided with another nonmotor vehicle. The accident occurred in a parking lot of a shopping center. The bus driver was transporting several passengers at the time of the incident.
The cause of the accident is still under investigation, but it is believed that visibility may have been a factor. Nonmotor vehicles, such as bicycles and pedestrians, can be difficult to see in parking lots, especially when drivers are backing up.
If you have been injured in a nontraffic accident, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Contact an experienced personal injury attorney to discuss your case and determine the best course of action.
Remember, accidents can happen anywhere, even in nontraffic areas. Stay vigilant and stay safe.
