Seat Belt Injuries Can Be Dangerous
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that more than 2.9 million people suffered seat belt injuries in 2002, and 43,000 people died as a result of their seat belt-related injuries. These are astounding numbers, say Chicago personal injury attorneys who often represent victims who have been injured by their seat belt.
Injuries sustained from a faulty seat belt during a collision can range from contusions and soft-tissue damage, to severe spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injury and paraplegia.
If you or a loved one have been seriously injured due to an auto-product failure including seat belt defects, contact an Illinois personal injury lawyer today. The initial consultation is typically free, and your injury attorney can advise you of your rights and your potential case.
