California Trolley Accidents
San Diego is famous for its “Red-Line” trolley system which has become one of the iconic fixtures when one thinks of beautiful San Diego and its skyline and surrounding areas. The Metro Transit System is the entity that controls the trolley line. Sadly, despite the efficiency of the public transport system and its beauty, accidents do happen. When they happen they are usually serious because the accident involved other vehicles, or worse, pedestrians directly.
Trolley Accidents can be caused by:
1. Trolley operator inattention;
2. Trolley operator under the influence of a drug or fatigue;
3. Sudden or uncontrolled stops performed by the trolley operator;
4. Improperly maintained trolley tracks or other fixtures tied to the trolley track system;
5. Simple negligent operation or control of the trolley by the trolley operator for any reason causing injury;
6.Defective manufactured product of the trolley or trolley system track leading to injury;
7.Inattentive pedestrians or other vehicles that either step or drive onto the trolley tracks leading to an injury producing accident.

Description: Although a lawyer can't help you meet every financial challenge, there are a number of things your lawyer CAN do to hold the negligent party responsible, to speed your financial recovery, and to minimize the stress you are facing. At our San Diego Personal Injury Law Firm, our personal injury attorneys and staff help our injured clients in a number of ways: - Head-on Collision Auto Accident
Description: It's everyone's worst nightmare — receiving a phone call telling you that your spouse or teenager has been involved in a head-on collision. A head-on collision happens for only one reason: Someone was seriously negligent, driving directly at traffic. It nearly always means a catastrophic injury or fatal accident. If you have received that call, you know how devastating it is to your entire family. - Defective Air Bag Injuries from a San Diego California Car Accident
Description: Air bags should help to keep drivers safe (and prevent death from happening in a car accident), and they frequently do. However, improperly installed or defective air bags can result in serious injuries. Defective or malfunctioning air bags can cause chemical burns, eye injuries, severe head trauma, and possibly death. San Diego Accident Attorney Mark C. Blane has years of experience holding manufacturers responsible for product defects in San Diego County and throughout California. - Brake Failures | One Cause of an Auto Accident
Description: Brakes are one of the most important safety systems on your vehicle, though they often go unnoticed until there is a problem. It is recommended that you care for your brakes regularly and keep them in good condition. However, even if you do everything right, brakes can still fail, causing accidents that would have otherwise been avoidable and making unavoidable accidents much worse. If you believe brake failure contributed to your accident, we have years of experience helping accident victims in San Diego County and throughout California, can help you. - Roof Collapse Car Accidents
Description: Rollover accidents, in which the vehicle flips upside down, are among the most dangerous types of vehicle accidents for many reasons; it is not the bio-mechanical force of the crash that makes them the most dangerous. They are made even more dangerous by poorly-designed and manufactured vehicle roofs that cannot withstand the force of the accident. The roofs can be crushed and cause severe injuries and even death to the driver and passengers inside. Common injuries that are caused by roof crushing are fractures, traumatic brain injuries, and paralysis and other severe spinal injuries, including quadriplegia and paraplegia. - Lost Limbs | Amputation Injuries Due to the Negligence of Another
Description: At our law firm, in San Diego, California, we understand the fear and uncertainty that often comes with an amputation — especially when that amputation is caused by someone's negligent or reckless conduct. For many years, we have been holding people and businesses accountable for their actions by seeking full and fair compensation for personal injury victims in California court rooms.
