Due to the crash paramedics rushed the occupants of a box truck to the hospital in serious condition. The accidente<\/strong><\/a> happened around 3 a.m. Wednesday, May 22, 2019, in the westbound lanes of I-4 near the 12 milepost.<\/p>\n

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver of the box truck went off-road for an unknown reason and hit a barrier wall that separated the highway from a Florida DOT scale building. The officer stated they weren’t wearing seatbelts causing them to be thrown from the truck.<\/p>\n

Ejection Injuries in a Box Truck Accident<\/h2>\n

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrations, you have around a 90 percent chance of dying when ejected from a vehicle in a crash. This is because of the violent nature of an accident that happens with enough force to eject occupants. Also, a person ejected from a car is not protected by the vehicle. So, they are subject to a secondary impact or severely injured by hitting the ground.<\/p>\n

Passenger Injuries<\/h2>\n

Passengers of an auto crash are more likely to be severely injured or killed than the driver. Experts believe the reason for this is that the steering wheel offers some protection to the driver and that many times the passenger isn\u2019t able to brace themselves or take other defensive measures prior to the crash.<\/p>\n

Who Pays for my Injuries?<\/h2>\n

Many times, passengers of the at-fault driver wonder who will pay for their injuries. Florida law requires that anyone at fault for someone else\u2019s personal injuries compensate them for their losses. This is true even if the driver and the passenger are friends, family and are on the same insurance policy.<\/p>\n

This means that the insurance company of the drive of the car that caused the accident will have to pay for all financial losses incurred because of the crash. Also, if the injured passenger has auto insurance, there may some coverage from their own policy as well.<\/p>\n

Do I need an Attorney after a Box Truck Crash?<\/h2>\n

The insurance company might tell you that you can\u2019t sue a family member or that if you weren\u2019t wearing a seatbelt, that the injury was your fault. Don\u2019t listen to them. Talk to our equipo de lesiones personales<\/a> who knows the laws regarding personal injury and insurance coverage.<\/p>\n
